Very probably a hunting chateau, its lines mimic the styles of more urban residences, indicating the affluence of the owners. The artist has made use of late afternoon lighting and shadowplay to increase the dramatic effect. Survives in its original gold-painted frame with foliate carved bordering.
Circa early 1900s
