Deel van het waterspel te Karlsberg 1706

This engraving, created in 1706 by Italian artist Giovanni Girolamo Frezza, depicts a bird's-eye view of a grand, formal garden with a central fountain and a series of terraces. The intricate design of the gardens, with its symmetrical layout and elaborate water features, showcases the popularity of Baroque gardens in the early 18th century. The meticulous detail and precise perspective of the artwork highlight the artist's mastery of architectural and landscape drawing. It's an example of a highly sought-after genre for the time, garden design, and provides a glimpse into the aesthetic sensibilities of the era.
