The composition features classical architecture, including columns, pediments, and arcades that are characteristic of Roman design. Gandy's meticulous attention to detail brings these architectural elements to life, capturing the essence of ancient Rome. The capriccio style employed by Gandy allows for creative freedom as he combines various architectural elements from different time periods into one harmonious scene. This technique creates a sense of whimsy and imagination within the artwork.
