Fascinated with Italian church interiors, Baldassare Cavallotti captured many of them in small ink-and-wash drawings. One here is inscribed with its location in the Basilica of San Marco, while the other appears to be a study of the tabernacle with carved columns that arches over the tomb of Saint Mark.
