Further details
Girault de Prangey shows his dedication to exploring architecture in its different forms, here recording the austere simplicity of a tomb hewn in a rock face.
The plate manufacturer's stamp can be found in the corner of just a few of the plates in the form of a rosette, making those that bear this mark all the more exceptional.
