This detailed engraving by Dutch artist Joseph Mulder depicts the layout of the formal gardens at the Guensteyn estate in Breukelen, Netherlands. The gardens, designed in the French style, feature a complex geometric pattern of paths, hedges, and parterres (ornamental flower beds). The design incorporates both symmetrical and asymmetrical elements, creating a visually engaging composition. Mulder's meticulous rendering highlights the intricate details of the gardens, offering a glimpse into the refined taste and aesthetic of the 17th century.
