content: A chinoiserie-style design for a panel after Jean Pillement, depicting a man holding a long stick on a bridge, within a garden landscape, surrounded by trees, plants and flowers. Balustrades line the bridge or path leading towards an urn with flowers on a plinth in front of a trellised structure, with a hanging textile forming a canopy. Flowers and plants hang from the scene, with rococo-style fronds below, decorated with more flowers and garlands.
