Chateau of Berny is a 1727 by Jacques Rigaud, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This drawing shows a grand building with tall roofs and many windows, surrounded by gardens and a canal. People in old-fashioned clothes walk near the water, and carriages sit in front of the house. The scene looks calm, with trees lining the path and a small bridge over the canal. The title at the bottom says it’s the *Chateau of Berny*, owned by a prince. The artist’s name, Rigaud, is also written there. Next, look up Baroque to see how this style shaped grand houses like this one.
