About the Item

Antique Print of Villa Mon Caprice, Villers-sur-Mer by E. Macé, c.1900 Antique architectural print titled "Villa Mon Caprice, Villers-sur-Mer," designed by architect E. Macé with decorative elements by A. Darvant. Published under the direction of Pierre Chabat in *La Brique et La Terre Cuite* (c.1900), this chromolithograph showcases the elegance and decorative richness of French seaside villas from the Belle Époque era. The print presents a highly detailed elevation of the villa façade, with its symmetrical arrangement, tall chimneys, ornate terracotta details, and sculpted busts integrated into the brickwork. Below the façade are carefully drawn architectural plans for the basement (sous-sol), ground floor (rez-de-chaussée), and first floor (1er étage), offering insight into the villa’s layout with spaces such as salons, dining rooms, cellars, ateliers, and private chambers. Located in Villers-sur-Mer, a fashionable seaside resort in Normandy, Villa Mon Caprice exemplifies the refined lifestyle and architectural creativity of the late 19th century, where coastal retreats became a canvas for innovation in design. The collaboration between architect Macé and decorator Darvant is highlighted in the ornamental terracotta detailing, a central theme in Chabat’s publication. *La Brique et La Terre Cuite* was an important architectural portfolio at the turn of the century, documenting the expressive use of brick and terracotta in French architecture. Plates such as this one not only served as technical references but also as works of art, celebrating craftsmanship and design. Condition report: Very good condition with vivid colors and clean impression. Slight toning in the margins and minor handling traces consistent with age. Plate mark clearly visible. Framing tips: This print will display beautifully in a natural oak or walnut frame with a wide ivory or cream mat to accentuate the warmth of the terracotta tones. For a more formal look, a gilt-lined wooden frame could highlight the ornamental details. Technique: Chromolithograph Maker: Pierre Chabat, France, c.1900
