About this motif
In 1686 Margrave Christian Ernst took in Huguenots from France and had a new planned town laid out for them. The Huguenot Fountain in the palace garden recalls this period.
Behrens' etching shows the fountain rich in figures with its rocky structure and basin, with trees and the orangery behind. Image about 8 x 11 cm on an 18 x 24 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
