In the foreground is a mowed lawn to the left and a paved road to the right. The road branches to circle an island of grass containing a large tree and a small fountain. A three-storey grey stone building with a brown roof is prominent behind them. Its entrance is partially obscured by the tree, and a three-storey rotunda is clearly visible fronting the right side of the building.
