As it stood in 1912
What Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild looked like in its prime.
Two-storey pale-rose stucco villa with white stone trim and carved ornament, a low terracotta-tiled hip roof and a balustraded roofline; a central three-arched loggia at first-floor level and arched entries at ground floor form a symmetric Renaissance-inspired façade. The house sits on a terraced promontory above the sea, fronted by a formal gravel parterre, long rectangular reflecting basin lined with clipped lawns, flowering borders and palm trees, marble terraces, statues and fountains — all intact and newly planted in 1912.
