Antique Optical Print of the Sanssouci Palace, Potsdam
About the Item
Antique print titled 'Le Derriere du Chateau Royal de sans Soucy'. A vue d'optique of the Sanssouci Palace, Potsdam, the title printed in reverse. The open spaces in the foreground are populated by groups of well-dressed courtiers and servants, and carts and carriages carrying goods and passengers arrive at the back entry of the Palace. The Sanssouci Palace was the summer palace of the Prussian King, Frederick the Great. The palace is often seen as the German counterpart to the French royal palace at Versailles.
This is an optical print, also called 'vue optique' or 'vue d'optique', which were made to be viewed through a Zograscope, or other devices of convex lens and mirrors, all of which produced an optical illusion of depth.
Published by Georg Balthasar Probst, circa 1760.
