Description:
- To manifest the consolidation of his power over the Low Countries, the Emperor Charles VI of Austria staged triumphal entries for his representative into Brussels and Ghent in 1717. During six days of ceremonies and festivities, the main market place was transformed several times. This print (DR1982:0240) depicts the third transformation that was wrought on the Place au Vendredi: the statue of Charles V, ornamented with an illuminated monogramme of Charles VI, became the centerpiece of a temporary fenced compound for fireworks - a firework display layout standard for at least a century, and still in use today.

Description:
- DR1984:0572 and DR1984:0573 describe a theoretical project for a garden house consisting of a central block and four smaller pavilions. The central block, rectangular in plan and containing a single-storey, oval salon, or hall, is entered by means of curved stair ramps on front and back. The four pavilions, also rectangular in plan but two storeys in height, are joined at a forty-five degree angle to the four corners of the central block. On the main level the interior walls of the central hall and of three pavilions are articulated by statue niches. The fourth pavilion contains a staircase leading to the second floor. Except for the pavilions this upper level is open to the sky. At ground level four fountains are placed axially in the angles created by the pavilions. On the exterior the walls of the main floor are rusticated, while those of the pavilions at second-storey level are framed by an order of Corinthian pilasters.
