Summary
Watercolour. A watercolour painted on cream card. This watercolour is double-sided, there is a smaller piece of card glued to the back of a larger piece of card. On the larger piece of card there is a view of the castle from the garden which looks at the corner of the south wing and the turret of the east wing. The chapel windows are unfinished and not painted and the pencil outlines can be seen. On the smaller piece of card there is another scene painted which shows a river. The riverbed to the right of the river is lined with trees as is the riverbed to the left. The left hand side also has a few rocks accompanying the trees.
