The Chateau Ste. Ursule, Cannes, 1857. Creator: Unknown.

The Chateau Ste. Ursule, Cannes, 1857. 'We have now to record a recent architectural addition to this favoured locality, in a handsome Gothic castle, which has passed, by purchase, into the possession of Lord Londesborough. The Chateau...stands in a position at once commanding and picturesque. The site, no doubt, was chosen with this object, and the selection has been a happy one; for it is surrounded by some of the most beautiful and varied scenery in Europe...Upon the rising ground, eastward of the Castle, may be seen the ruins of a Moorish tower and the Roman Catholic Church. Immediately behind, to the eastward, and upon the lower ground, is the town of Cannes...The Chateau Ste. Ursule, the Chateau la Bouche, and the Protestant Church, were erected from the designs and under the superintendence of Mr. Thomas Smith, of Hertford, and Hart-street, Bloomsbury'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
