Galerij met portaal en nissen 1752 - 1794

"Galerij met portaal en nissen" (Gallery with Portal and Niches) is an architectural drawing created by Pierre Gabriel Berthault between 1752 and 1794. The drawing, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a detailed plan and elevation of a grand interior space featuring a central archway leading to a hall beyond. The ornate decorative details characteristic of the Rococo style can be seen in the molding, pilasters, and the small figures sculpted above the arch. Berthault's drawing provides valuable insight into the design and aesthetic sensibilities of the 18th century.
