This is an original 1950 black and white photogravure of the Château of Fontaine-Henry which is located in the commune of Fontaine-Henry in the region of Basse-Normandie (Normandy) in northern France. The château was rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries and is still lived in by the descendants of the original owners, the comte and comtesse de Olliamson.

Normandy is the historical region corresponding to the former Duchy of Normandy in northern France. It lies along the English Channel and is traditionally divided into Upper and Lower Normandy. In World War II, the D-Day landings occurred along the Normandy beaches and that event began the lengthy Battle of Normandy which many believe was the turning point of that war.
