Augsburg (Place), hæred. Jerem. Wolff excud. Aug. Vind.,, [173-?].
7 engr. pl. ; 52.7 cm. (2º)

Title, credit and imprint from pl. 1, the general plan being followed by unsigned front and rear elevations (pl. 2-3), a section (pl. 4), and plans of the basement, ground, and first floors (pl. 5--7). The last six plates are imposed widthways. The Palais von Marschall in Berlin was built to the designs of Philipp Gerlach, 1735--6. These engravings may have been after drawings by C.H. Horst, who collaborated with Gerlach on this and other projects, and who is credited as draughtsman in a similar suite for C.F. Richter's Palais des Grafen Schulenburg-Wolffsburg (q.v.). Berlin Kat. 2124 describes another undated issue of the present work, published in Augsburg by Johann Balthasar Probst (1673--1750).
