專家說明

Officer, architect and painter Georg Wenzeslaus Baron von Knobelsdorff was commisioned by Frederick II of Prussia - later Frederick the Great - for several architectural projects such as the Temple garden at Neuruppin (Amalthea Garten), the Frederick palace at Sanssouci at Potsdam and the design of the terraces on the Wine Hill.
