Gezicht op het Hof van het Witte Paard en gevel van kasteel Fontainebleau 1631 - 1691

This etching by Israel Silvestre, dating from 1631 to 1691, depicts a view of the courtyard of the Château de Fontainebleau, a royal palace near Paris. The detailed drawing shows the grand facade of the building, featuring a series of arched doorways and a sweeping staircase. The central fountain, topped with a sculpture, is a prominent feature, and the surrounding grounds are filled with people and trees. This work is a fine example of 17th-century French architectural illustration and offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the royal court.
