Rising from a series of circular basins, the central monument -- a four-sided aedicula capped by a curved pavilion roof -- houses four allegorical figures, one on each side and set in a niche. In the entablature above the figure shown in the elevation appears the inscription "Peinture".

DR1987:0273
Description:
- A long, rectangular garden structure in the form of a loggia separating two small end pavilions. The loggia, consisting of five bays articulated by freestanding Doric columns, is approached by steps across its entire width and opens onto a series of niches occupied by sculptural figures in the rear wall. The end pavilions, which show on the main exterior elevation a pedimented window framed by rustication and a molded arch, are square in plan and capped by a dome not expressed on the exterior.

DR1986:0704
Description:
- DR1986:0704X represents a bird's-eye view of an imagined zoological garden. In the foreground, immediately behind an iron and stone fence, appear a series of small, whimsical structures in a Chinese or mixed Chinese-Indian style. These structures, together with their adjoining enclosures, house a variety of animals and are scattered among a number of fountains, ponds and clustered shrubs. - In the middle ground, on the central axis of the garden, rises a long, two-storey structure with a large, projecting pavilion in the centre and a tower at either end. Both levels of this structure are encased in verandas and the end towers and central pavilion are capped with pointed domes in an Indian style. The oval area before this structure is enclosed by two curved colonnades open on both sides and supporting a peaked, tile roof. This construction is obviously an orientalized version of St. Peter's Colonnade in Rome. - Further back and behind the long structure occur additional pavilions in a Chinese style, most notably a three-storey pagoda. On axis, and still further back, rises a second long, palace-like structure, sketched in a vaguely Mogul style. The entire ensemble is set in a nondescript, generalized landscape.
