{"product_id":"elevation-du-cote-de-la-place-de-gramont-gabriel-huquier","title":"Elevation du côté de la Place de Gramont - Gabriel Huquier","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn eighteenth-century architectural engraving depicting the facade of a town house in Bayonne, designed by Juste-Aurèle Meissonnier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis architectural print presents the elevation of a town house facade, specifically the side facing the Place de Gramont in Bayonne. The design originates from the work of Juste-Aurèle Meissonnier, a prominent figure in the development of the Rococo style, and was executed by the engraver Gabriel Huquier. The composition adheres to the formal conventions of eighteenth-century architectural documentation, providing a precise, two-dimensional representation of the building's exterior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe facade exhibits the characteristic features of the period, including a rusticated ground floor, symmetrical window placement, and decorative ironwork balconies. The upper levels display a rhythmic arrangement of tall, rectangular windows, each framed with subtle mouldings. The roofline is punctuated by dormer windows and decorative finials, which add a sense of verticality to the structure. The engraving technique employs fine, parallel lines to denote shading and texture, particularly within the window apertures and the horizontal bands of the lower masonry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a collaborative effort between a designer and an engraver, this print reflects the dissemination of architectural ideas during the mid-eighteenth century. The inclusion of the phrase 'Avec Privilege du Roy' indicates that the work was officially sanctioned, a common practice for high-quality prints produced in France at the time. The clarity of the line work allows for a detailed examination of the structural elements, from the ornate brackets supporting the balconies to the precise geometry of the window frames. This print serves as a record of urban domestic architecture in Bayonne, capturing the aesthetic preferences of the era through a disciplined, technical lens. It is an example of how architectural designs were circulated among architects, builders, and collectors, allowing for the spread of specific stylistic motifs across European urban centres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/de-schilder-door-liefde-pieter-tanje\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eDe schilder door liefde - Pieter Tanjé — Pieter Tanjé\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gabriel Huquier","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491788132687,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491804254543,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491804287311,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491804320079,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491804352847,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491804385615,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491804418383,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491804451151,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491804483919,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491804516687,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491804549455,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491804582223,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Elevation-du-c-t-de-la-Place-de-Gramont_Poster_CompositorV1_1786388167515.jpg?v=1786929880","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/elevation-du-cote-de-la-place-de-gramont-gabriel-huquier","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
