UNKNOWN WESTERN EUROPEAN ENGRAVER View of the Fontanka river from the Grotto and Reserve Palace Engraving with a chisel and etching, authentic colouring with watercolors, circa 1775. 36 x 48 cm. Based on the original of 1753 by G. A. Kachalov and the drawing by M. I. Makhaev.
Engraving. Avenue alongside the Fontanka river from the
Grotto and Reserve Palace with direction at noon from the
album ‘Plan of the capital city of St. Petersburg’ displaying
the most famous avenues. Published by the Imperial
Academy of Arts and Sciences in Saint Petersburg, released
by the fiftieth anniversary of the city in 1753.
On the left bank of the Fontanka river there was the wooden
building of the Reserve Palace, accumulating supplies for the
needs of the Summer Palace, the residence of Peter I. Near the
bridge there was a location of the Partikulyarnaya shipyard,
established in 1716-1717 and rebuilt by A. I. Korobov in
the late 1730s. On the right side there were the Summer
garden and Grotto. The creation of the Summer garden took
place under the control of Peter I. The Grotto (dismantled
at the beginning of the XIX century) was a small pavilion,
decorated inside with sea stones, shells and fountains.
