EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century view of the Buen Retiro Palace and its surrounding garden in Madrid, Spain, is an anonymous work attributed to Alonso Carbonell and Jean Francois Daumont. The aerial perspective, with its bird's-eye vantage point, offers a unique and expansive look at the royal residence and its meticulously landscaped grounds. Dating from 1745-1775, this etching on prepared paper showcases the grandeur and elegance of the Rococo era. The palace, a stunning example of Baroque architecture, stands proudly at the center of the image, its ornate facade adorned with intricate details and decorative elements. The garden, a tranquil oasis, is filled with lush greenery, winding paths, and fountains, providing a serene contrast to the grandeur of the palace. The background is populated with figures, adding a sense of scale and activity to the scene. The use of color and watercolor paint adds depth and texture, bringing the image to life and transporting us back in time. This view is a testament to the artistic prowess of the period, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Europe during the Rococo era. Originally created as an etching on cardboard, this work has been reproduced here as a print, making it accessible to art lovers and history enthusiasts alike. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, is one of the many esteemed institutions that have preserved this valuable piece of art for future generations to appreciate and study.
