This engraving, titled Tab. XII, presents an architectural study of a marble baluster and its detailed ornamentation, illustrating the graceful curves and decorative motifs that were prominent in the late 18th century. The study is based on a marble balustrade seen at the Duomo di Siena, specifically located at the scale of the pulpit. The accompanying text explains that architects and ornamentists often needed to incorporate human figures or other forms into their designs for greater aesthetic value.

The work is attributed to Giovanni Albertolli, a renowned Italian architect and engraver, who was known for his detailed designs and contributions to architectural theory and ornamentation. This engraving is part of a broader series of works that reflect the classical influence on late 18th-century Italian design.
