Le Chateau des Hiboux; Ex-libris de Léon Lerey is a 1885 ink by Félix-Hilaire Buhot, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image is a black and white etching of a castle, with a large moon shining down on it. The castle is surrounded by a body of water, and there are several trees and bushes in the foreground. To the right of the castle scene is a smaller image that appears to be a bookplate or ex-libris. The bookplate features a banner with the word "EXLIBRIS" written on it, as well as some other text that is difficult to read. There are also some illustrations of various objects, including a ship and a musical instrument.
