Bust of Prince Albert, Chateau de Hardelot, Condette

Marble bust of Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, 1819-61, detail, by Emil Wolff, 1802-79, from the Musee du Louvre, in the Vestibule, 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 building dates from 1865-72, when its owner, Henry Guy, rebuilt the chateau 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
