This photo shows a large, fortress-like building with thick walls and small, evenly spaced windows. The structure has a flat roof with battlements, like a castle, and a tower rising in the back. In front, a wide, empty courtyard has a few people and a horse-drawn carriage. The photo looks old, with a grainy black-and-white tone, likely taken in the 1870s. The building’s heavy, blocky design contrasts with the open sky above. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
