Reproduction of a painting on a postcard.

In the picture is Wilanów Palace, a former royal residence located in a suburb of Warsaw. It was built in 1677 by John III Sobieski as a summer residence for Polish kings. And its architectural style combines classicist and baroque elements, characteristic of buildings of that time.

The canvas has a sufficiently deep perspective and dynamism, due to the presence of many details: people, a moving carriage, and a cloudy sky, which hints at the weather, which is about to change. However, the work itself radiates coziness, thanks to the use of a warm palette and smooth strokes.
