EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing "Design for Parterre" from the renowned Theatre des Plans et Jardinages, published in 1652. Created by the talented artist Andre Mollet (d. 1665), this engraving beautifully captures the essence of French garden design during that era. The image depicts a meticulously crafted parterre, featuring box edging and gravel paths that intricately weave together to form an exquisite geometric pattern. The use of box hedging adds depth and structure to the design, while also paying homage to Claude Mollet (1564 - 1649), who introduced these iconic elements into garden landscapes. With its formal and symmetrical layout, this knot garden exudes elegance and sophistication. A central fountain becomes the focal point, adding a touch of tranquility amidst the lush greenery. Every detail has been carefully considered, resulting in a harmonious composition that is both visually stunning and architecturally impressive. As part of The Stapleton Collection, this enchanting print offers us a glimpse into historical garden designs that have stood the test of time. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with nature's beauty and our desire to create art within it.
