.. Pl. 1 Antique Print of an English Pavilion by Schübler (c.1724)

Description: Antique print titled 'Ein neue Faconirtes Englisches Lust Haus (..)'. Copper engraving showing an English garden pavilion. This print originates from a series of garden elements by J. Schübler. 

Artists and Engravers: Johann Jacob Schübler was a German artist and architect. As a child he was apprenticed as a copperplate engraver. Between 1705 and 1713 he traveled through Germany, England, Denmark and the Netherlands, then returned to Nuremberg, where he remained thereafter. In 1717, he erected a triumphal arch for the court in Sulzbach. Schübler published numerous writings on architectural theory. He was admitted as a foreign member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences in 1734 and in 1736 was named the Greater Council of the City of Nuremberg.
