Panelen met masker 1772 - 1779

"Panelen met masker" (Panels with a Mask) is an architectural drawing created by Jean Pelletier in 1772-1779. This design, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases a detailed plan for a decorative wall panel with intricate moldings, featuring a central mascaron (a decorative element in the form of a human or animal face). This drawing exemplifies the refined aesthetics of 18th-century French interior design and the meticulous attention to detail prevalent in architectural engravings of the period.
