Architecture Pittoresque ou Monuments des XVeme. Et XVIeme. Siecles: Chateaux de France des XV et XVI Siecles: Pl. 62, Château De Folin (Yonne)

This lithograph with tint stone depicts the Château de Folin in the Yonne department of France, showcasing the picturesque architectural style characteristic of the 15th and 16th centuries. Created by Victor Petit as plate 62 in his ambitious portfolio of 100 lithographs documenting French Renaissance châteaux, the work employs the delicate tonal variations possible with tint stone to render the castle's intricate details and atmospheric setting. Petit's series served as an important visual record of French architectural heritage during the Romantic period's fascination with medieval and Renaissance revival aesthetics.
