28: Villandry - by Constant-Duval for Chemins de Fer d'Orleans

Another latter day renaissance castle, sitting near the spot where the river Cher meets the Loire. There is only a hint of Villandry's vast topiary gardens in Constant Duval's poster -- he prefers the view over the water rather than across the gardens, with the layer of color between the manor and the Cher the only representation of those gardens.
