EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Maison de Plaisance at Destelberge, from Choix des Monuments" takes us on a journey back to the early 19th century Netherlands and Belgium. Captured by Pierre Jacques Goetghebuer in 1827, this aquatint showcases the remarkable neo-classical architecture of Maison de Plaisance. The image transports us to a serene and idyllic setting. The grand palladian-style mansion stands proudly amidst lush greenery, surrounded by a circular carriageway that invites leisurely drives. Its elegant Ionic portico and dome add an air of sophistication to the scene. A tranquil lake lies adjacent to the pleasure house, offering opportunities for boating and peaceful reflection. A pavilion with a cupola graces one side of the water, providing a picturesque spot for relaxation. The attention to detail is evident in every element captured within this photograph print. From the intricate pediment adorning the mansion's entrance to the carefully designed ramp leading up to its majestic facade, each feature contributes to its overall magnificence. "Maison de Plaisance at Destelberge" serves as both an architectural marvel and a testament to Goetghebuer's talent as an artist. This rare glimpse into early 19th-century life allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this particular structure but also gain insight into historical architectural trends in Belgium and Netherlands during that time period.
