Orangerie van Kasteel Gunterstein, Breukelen 1680 - 1696

Joseph Mulder's 17th century engraving, "Orangerie van Kasteel Gunterstein, Breukelen," depicts the orangerie of the Gunterstein Castle in the Netherlands. The detailed etching showcases a large, rectangular building with numerous windows, likely designed to allow sunlight to reach the citrus trees housed within. The courtyard, filled with potted trees and a central fountain, provides a visual representation of the opulence and sophistication of the estate. This print offers a glimpse into the horticulture practices and architectural styles of the Dutch Golden Age.
