Vue du Château de Fontainebleau, du côté de l'Orangerie

Israël Silvestre

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a large, formal garden with a symmetrical design. The garden features a central pathway leading to a statue on a pedestal, flanked by two smaller pathways on either side. The garden is divided into sections with trees and shrubs arranged in a patterned design. A large building with a steeply pitched roof and multiple chimneys is visible on the left side of the image. A long, low building with arches and columns runs along the right side of the garden. The sky above is cloudy. The image is rendered in shades of brown and tan, suggesting it may be an engraving or etching. The text at the bottom of the image appears to be written in French and Latin.
