About This Item
Denmark 1999. Described as one of the worlds most perfect works of architecture, the Palace of Christian VII forms part of a unique architectural solution consisting of four identical mansions surrounding a square. Here, the work of architect Nicolai Eigtved (1701-1754) reached its culmination. With his richly varied yet carefully controlled style, Eigtved was among the foremost representatives of the Rococo in European architecture. The palace was built for the lord high chamberlain Adam Gottlob Moltke who demanded several refinements that helped make the mansion the most impressive private residence in Denmark. Gorgeously illustrated and comprehensive, these books share a detailed account of the process of building and furnishing the mansion in the 1700s, as well as presenting all later changes, concluding with the recent restoration and redecoration. Amalienborg is the official residence of the Danish Royal Family., English, Year1999, Illust. B/W, Illust. ColorRich, ISBN 8772418672, Code 4193.
