Vaas in nis 1763

"Vaas in nis," a 1763 engraving by French architect Jean François de Neufforge, showcases a detailed design for a niche decorated with a vase. The intricate architectural details, including a dome-shaped ceiling, two columns, and a carefully-crafted base for the vase, exemplifies the Neoclassical style prevalent in the 18th century. This architectural print, now in the Rijksmuseum, likely served as a guide for artisans and designers seeking to incorporate classical elements into their own creations.
