This detailed engraving, "'De Koninginne Tuin met 't Groene Kabinet , en de Oranjerie, van Achteren gezien", is a depiction of a royal garden, likely in the Netherlands. It features a central fountain surrounded by manicured lawns and ornate hedges. The artist, Carel Allard, was known for his precise and elegant style, evident in the meticulous detail of the buildings and the figures strolling through the garden. The composition is a testament to the Dutch Golden Age's fascination with order and symmetry in nature and architecture. The piece is currently part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City, a testament to its enduring historical and artistic value.
