Andreas Schler (1659?1714) was a well-known Baroque sculptor and the architect behind some of Berlin most famous buildings, from the legendary Amber Room to the City Palace?which is in the midst of a major rebuilding effort. In his role as court sculptor and court architect, Schler worked under the direction of Frederick I of Prussia, who hoped to position the city through ambitious new art and architectural projects alongside Paris and Rome as a chief artistic center of Europe. The perfect companion for those planning a trip to the city or interested in this particularly rich period of its architectural history, Schler In Berlin: A City Guide takes readers through all of the architect most famous works with illustrations and convenient city maps. Each sculpture or building is accompanied by a concise description and a longer essay on the broader historical background of the period. Schler is the artistic force behind what is now known as Baroque Berlin, and Schler in Berlin is the first book to offer English?language readers a look at his many contributions to the city.
