Portrait of Conchino de Conchini, Chateau de Hardelot, Condette, Pas-de-Calais, France

Portrait of Conchino de Conchini, Marshall of France and Marquis of Ancre, Baron of Lesigny, Count of Penna, c. 1575-1617, favourite of Marie de Medici and husband of Leonora Dori, engraving, in the Billiards Room, in the Chateau de Hardelot, originally the site of a 12th century castle, rebuilt over the centuries and finally redeveloped in the 19th century, in Condette, Pas-de-Calais, France. The current chateau dates from 1865-72, when its owner, Henry Guy, rebuilt it in Neo-Tudor style. Since 2009 the building has housed the Centre Culturel de l'Entente Cordiale, with an arts programme involving France and Britain. It is situated within the Reserve Naturelle Regionale du Marais de Condette, a protected marshland area. Picture by Manuel Cohen
