Huquier, a prominent French engraver and art dealer during the eighteenth century, was instrumental in the dissemination of the Rococo style through his prints. His work often captured the domestic arrangements and decorative sensibilities of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plan illustrates a sophisticated spatial layout, typical of mid-eighteenth-century French urban townhouses. The rooms are labelled with letters, corresponding to a key at the bottom of the print: A for Antichambre, B for Chambre de Parade, C for Chambre à coucher, D for Cabinet, E for Grand Cabinet, and F for Antichambre. The drawing employs clean, precise lines to delineate the walls, with hatched shading used to indicate the thickness of the masonry. The irregular, trapezoidal footprint of the building suggests the constraints of the urban site in Bayonne, yet the interior configuration maintains a sense of order and symmetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArchitectural prints of this nature were often produced to document contemporary design or to provide models for architects and builders. Huquier’s technical approach is clear and functional, prioritising the legibility of the room dimensions and the flow of the circulation spaces. The inclusion of the floor plan provides a glimpse into the private life and domestic hierarchy of the era, where specialised rooms such as the 'Chambre de Parade' and 'Grand Cabinet' served distinct social and personal functions. This print is a valuable record of historical domestic architecture, offering a view into the spatial organisation of a French provincial home during the Rococo period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/luise-ulrike-of-prussia-queen-of-sweden-antoine-pesne\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLuise Ulrike of Prussia, Queen of Sweden - Antoine Pesne — Antoine Pesne\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gabriel Huquier","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58729625911631,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58729646031183,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58729646063951,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58729646096719,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58729646129487,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58729646162255,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58729646195023,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58729646227791,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58729646260559,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58729646293327,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58729646326095,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58729646358863,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Plattegrond-van-de-tweede-verdieping-van-het-huis-van-L-on-Berthous-in-Bayonne_Poster_CompositorV1_1788988382936.jpg?v=1788988852","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/plattegrond-van-de-tweede-verdieping-van-het-huis-van-leon-berthous-in-bayonne-gabriel-huquier","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
