Victor Petit

Architecture Pittoresque ou Monuments des XVeme. Et XVIeme. Siecles: Chateaux de France des XV et XVI Siecles: Pl. 94, Ancien Château de la Pommeraie (Aisne)

1860

Among the 100 plates documenting France's vanishing châteaux, this lithograph preserves the memory of the ancient Château de la Pommeraie through Petit's precise architectural rendering. The tinted lithographic technique allows for subtle gradations that emphasize the structure's weathered stonework and Gothic elements.

Medium
lithograph with tint stone, from portfolio of 100 lithographs with tint stone
