Based on a sketch of Waddesdon Manor during a weekend in Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire earlier in the year.
French Renaissance-style château designed by Hippolyte Destailleur for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild in 1874, now part of the National Trust.
The sketch focuses on the staircase inspired by Château de Chambord in the Loire Valley.
