Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt (14 November 1668 – 16 November 1745) was an Italian-trained Austrian architect who designed many stately buildings and churches. Among his more important works are the palaces for Count Schönborn in Göllersdorf (1712–1717) and the palaces for Prince Eugene of Savoy (the two Belvedere palaces in Vienna, 1713–1723, Schloßhof, 1729, and the Savoy Castle in Ráckeve, H, 1701ff.).

“The greatest step forward would be to see that everything factual is already theory. The blueness of the sky reveals the basic law of chromatics. Don’t look for anything behind the phenomena, they themselves are the doctrine.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
