The image depicts a landscape scene titled "View of Versailles" by Antoine Vollon. The scene shows a large building with a long facade and many windows, situated on the far side of a body of water. The building appears to be a palace or estate, with a flat roof and symmetrical architecture. The water in front of the building reflects the image of the palace. There are trees on both sides of the image, with some foliage in the foreground. The sky above is light-colored and appears to have some clouds. The artwork is rendered in shades of brown and black, with a sepia tone. The image is framed with a thick brown border, and a thinner gold border around the artwork. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner.
