content: An architectural design print depicting an interior wall elevation for a Drawing Room in the Châteaux de Brunoy, designed by Jean Mansart de Jouy for Jean Pâris de Monmartel, marquis de Brunoy. The wall features a central chimneypiece and overmantel mirror, flanked by paneling, doors with overdoor paintings, and a cornice. The paneling (boiserie) is decorated with rococo motifs – feathers, c-scrolls, s-scrolls, fleurons, scrolling leaves, shells, floral diaper pattern, gadrooning, and flowers. The overmantel mirror is topped with a mask, a putto and arms and armor. There are wall sconces on either side of the mirror, with three candles each. And andirons in the fireplace. The plate is titled, numbered, and signed with a scale below the design.
