description
This black-and-white image shows the reception hall's ornate fireplace, characterized by its stone construction and decorative relief work above the mantle. The fireplace features intricate carvings, including a central emblematic relief that appears to depict a coat of arms or crest. Flanking the fireplace are two elaborately designed andirons, each adorned with decorative elements that include shield-like motifs and ornate metalwork. On either side of the fireplace, there are two matching wooden chairs, each with detailed carvings on the backrest and legs.
