This perspective view ( vue perspective, vue d'optique, or guckkastenblättern ) of the Charlottenburg Palace in Berlin features dramatic hold-to-light features and hand-coloring. Shown here in bright daylight and with back-lighting to illustrate the hold-to-light effects. Believed to date from circa 1770. Text on rear in Latin and French reads " Prospectus arcis regice versus locum ad stationes mutandas destinatum Berolini. La veue du Palais du Roy du cote de la Parade a Berlin." Source of the print is unknown. Sheet measures 12 3/8 by 17 1/2 inches. Thanks for visiting. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments.
