The long room features brackets and trophies near the cornice, and a series of windows and chimneypiece mirrors interspersed with double doors. There are also niches which have rocaille sculptures placed upon console tables. The plate has a scale bar of "60 pieds de France." The plate has been trimmed, but the engraver's signature is still visible.
