Der Schwetzinger Garten: in malerischen Ansichten gezeichnet

Zeyher, Johann Michael [Hrsg.] · 1830 · 8 pictures

A German set of 1830 engraved views of the Schwetzingen palace garden, edited by Johann Michael Zeyher and issued by Heidelberg University Library. The plates show garden buildings in romantic settings: a domed rotunda, a columned temple, a pavilion facade, and a ruined gateway with an arched bridge. Designers can take from them the picturesque landscape convention of pairing classical architecture with dense trees, fine parallel hatching, and staffage figures for scale.
