About the Item

17th-century Black and White Engravings of Architectural Fountains for Formal Gardens, Georg Andreas Bockler, Set of Six, Circa 1664 The framed black and white 17th century prints depict elaborate designs for Baroque fountains for public squares and private country house gardens in the French, German, British and Italian styles in this series of architectural studies. Dimensions: Framed: 18.75 inches x 15 inches; Sight: 10.75 inches x 7.25 inches We have an additional two examples from this set which I have separated and I am selling as a pair. They can be combined to create the original set of eight. Provenance: John Rosselli with retail label on reverse. “Architectura Curiosa Nova” is a comprehensive overview of the fountains of Europe with an introduction about the technical side of hydraulic engineering. It shows many examples of fountains and the differing effects that can be created by the flow of water through them. The Metropolitan Museum of Art writes, "The work of Böckler, professional architect and engineer working in Germany, is known only through drawings and references. His career as an architectural theorist, however, is well documented. His subject matter ranged from a translation of Palladio, to fortifications, heraldry, mechanics, and hydraulics. It is the latter that is the subject of this book, which presents a variety of options for the creation of fountains and the different effects that can be produced by manipulating the flow of water. The second half of the volume is devoted to a discussion of notable private residences and their grounds and includes magnificent engraved plates of fountains, grottoes, gardens, flowerbeds, and castles".
