Traphek met bladmotieven 1736 - 1759

This intricate engraving, "Traphek met bladmotieven," by Augustin Foin depicts a detailed design for a staircase railing. Created between 1736 and 1759, the artwork showcases the elegance of Rococo ornamentation, emphasizing the use of flowing lines, stylized foliage, and delicate patterns. The railing design features a repeating motif of intertwined "S" shapes, creating a sense of rhythm and movement. This architectural illustration, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, reflects the Rococo style's penchant for decorative embellishments in interior design.
