The monumental fireplace, “à la française”, is in sculpted wood and gilt. The over-mantel bears a copy on wood of Lionella Spada’s painting : Enée and Anchise. This painting represents Enee holding his father Anchise, Creüse - Enee's wife - and their son Ascagne. Anchise is taking from Creüse 's arms its most precious possession : his home's gods which will become Rome's Pénates (*), according to Virgile.
