Study for the First Plan of Solomon's Temple, Plate 420, Physica Sacra

A group of robed men, pointing and conversing with each other, appear in the left foreground. They are standing on a flat surface in an open space, with a brick wall on the left and behind them. A few other robed male figures are dispersed throughout the picture. Mountains appear in the background. A large sheet of paper with an architectural plan is positioned in the upper center of the composition, hanging from the elaborately ornamented frame bordering the picture.
