Twee panelen met kandelabers met bladranken 1650 - 1703

This etching by Paul Androuet Ducerceau, a prominent French architect and designer, exemplifies the elaborate decorative motifs of the Baroque era. Dating from 1650-1703, this design sheet features two panels, one showcasing an angel blowing a trumpet atop a pedestal adorned with scrolling foliage, and the other depicting a complex arrangement of stylized floral elements, a swan, and a portrait medallion. The intricate details and exaggerated flourishes characteristic of the Baroque style are evident in these designs, which would have been used to inspire decorative elements in architecture, furniture, and other arts.
