Statue d置ne Nymphe tenant une couronne de chesne, haute de sept pieds. Dans le Jardins de Versaillles. Par Phillipes de Buyster d'Anvers.
le Potre Sculps. 1672.
Engraving. Sheet 405 x 285mm, 16 x 11¼". Trimmed and laid on album paper.
A statue of a nymph by Philippe de Buyster (1595-1688), set in a classical landscape. The statue was commissioned as part of the "Petite Commande" of 1664, the first series of garden ornaments for the new palace of Versailles, featuring mythological creatures suitable for the rustic setting of the original palace. The statuary was replaced during the later, grander developments, so this series, engraved by Jean le Pautre (1618-82), is one of the only records of the original scheme.
