About this motif
The baroque palace in Bruchsal was the residence of the Prince-Bishops of Speyer. Its magnificent staircase, designed by Balthasar Neumann, is famous.
Behrens' large landscape print shows the whole residence from a raised viewpoint: the main block with its central dome, flanking pavilions, formal gardens and a gateway, under a dramatic cloudy sky. Picture about 15 x 20 cm, sheet 32 x 42 cm, plain, hand-tinted or framed.
