Elegant set of eight antique hand-colored engravings of architectural studies, including spouting fountains, pedestals, building facades and floor plans in the Neoclassic style by Jean-François de Neufforge (1714–1791), a Belgian architect and engraver active in Paris, from his "Recueil élémentaire d'architecture."
This hard-to-find set of eight engravings in matching frames, allows for a versatile and impactful display. The subject matter provides interest, while the subdued coloring blends into a variety of settings. They come beautifully presented with French matting decorated with ink lines and watercolor wash, and mottled green and brown frames with gilt liners. Engraved in France on early laid paper. Frames have a Christie's label on the verso. Shipped fully insured with tracking number.
Measurements: Frames: 20 3/4" wide by 26 1/4" high approximately.
