Berceau du Labyrinthe, à Versailles [print]

Caption title.
Forms part of a set of 33 plates chiefly depicting topographical views of Versailles, 31 of which were published in Leiden by Pierre Vander Aa as part of a suite of 36 plates which appeared as "tome second" of six parts depicting France and forming part his monumental series of etched plates issued in 66 parts, including topographical views of the principal towns and cities of the world, and published under the general title La galerie agréable du monde, où l'on voit en un grand nombre de cartes très exactes et de belles tailles douces les principaux empires, roïaumes, républiques, provinces, villes, bourgs et forteresses ... dans les quatre parties de l'univers (Leiden : Pierre Aa, 1729); the plates comprising the Morgan Library copy represent a different state of the prints originally issued by Aa, lacking the separately printed decorative engraved borders, and, in some instances, showing signs of damage or wear suggesting that the prints may be later impressions.
