This 18th-century print by Georg Balthasar Probst depicts a bird's-eye view of a grand formal garden, likely in a European palace. The intricate design showcases symmetrical walkways, geometrically shaped parterres, and a series of cascading fountains. The central fountain, adorned with sculptures, is the focal point, suggesting a grand display of waterworks. This detailed engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the elegance and grandeur of formal gardens during the Baroque and Rococo periods.
