A vertically oriented sepia lithograph depicts a stone château. On the left, a two-story building features arched windows and a steeply pitched roof with dormers. A tall, polygonal tower with a pointed roof and finials rises on the right. In the lower left, a man with a light skin tone stands near a doorway. A dirt path winds from the foreground toward the building, beside a small body of water in the lower right.
