This is an image of a building with classical architectural design. The front of the building features symmetrical elements such as tall, arched-top windows on the ground floor with columns and pilasters. The windows are decorated with trimmings and awnings. Above them, there is a frieze and an ornate pediment with sculpted reliefs. A wrought iron balcony is in the center of the second floor. In front of the building is a garden with trees and bushes. The scene has a formal and serene setting with a manicured lawn in the foreground.
