Twee kwarten van plafonds 1668 - 1716

Susanne Maria von Sandrart created this drawing of ceiling sections at an unknown date. The work presents two intricately designed ceiling portions, each offering a glimpse into the architectural aesthetics of its time. The structural layout of the designs immediately grabs attention. On the left, a geometric pattern creates an interesting structure that is softened by floral ornamentation. To the right, a curved segment displays elaborate molding with cherubic figures, evoking a sense of divine grace. The graphic medium emphasizes line and form, highlighting the artist's attention to detail. This work not only serves as an artistic statement but also as a functional blueprint, reflecting the fusion of art and architecture during this era. The drawing illustrates the period's fascination with classical motifs and ornate embellishments and the use of art as both decoration and documentation.
