Works

La Paisane Drolatre

La Paisane Drolatre is a picture signed in three languages ​​and shows a fat peasant girl smelling a bouquet of flowers. It should come from Wilhelm Engelbert Koning's work De Waereld vol Gekken Nesten differently named Het Dwergen Tooneel of geschakelde samenspraak van des zelfs personagien , which appeared in Amsterdam around 1720/1730 and in which several engravings by van Sasse were published.

16 copper engravings from the Herrenhausen Gardens in Hanover , published in 1751, are known, probably made after 1720/1723 and possibly created by Joost van Sasse. They show the "" ideal ( baroque ) garden, in which nature is structured and ruled by people ". The templates for these engravings came from the draftsman JJ Müller . The photographer Wilhelm August Degèle photographed some of these engravings and published them in his book Views of the Manorial Palaces and Gardens ... in 1861 . The court building officer Georg Heinrich Schuster oriented himself on one of these engravings when he wanted to reconstruct one of the corner cabinets as a stone building in the 19th century that had been burned down or demolished decades earlier. Since the engraving depicted the structures with significantly excessive proportions, the structure that was then created did not correspond to the original.
