A propos de cet article

1716 PERSPECTIVISCHER AUSSRISS DES ERSTEN VORGEMACHS DES KONIGLICHEN PALLASTES WELLCHES NACH DEM AUDIENZ SAHL SUHRET -A large architectural engraving published for Fanduuml;rstlicher Baumeister Oder: Architectura civilis (The Princely Architect or: Civil Architecture). In its essence this book contains the architect Paul Deckers ideal prospect, or rather prescription for the perfect noblemans palace: not too big and not too small, and outfitted with all the luxuries and latest fashions in interior design. He envisioned this book to be meant for other architects to take inspiration from, but at the same time to instruct potential patrons of what to expect from a modern-day palace. For each plate in the book, Decker therefore also included directions to ensure proper execution in terms of materials and colours. These plates were published byJeremias Wolff (German, 1663andndash;1724) from the drawings byPaul Decker the Elder (German, 1677andndash;1713).This example is in outstanding condition with later hand colour.
