Use Villa Ephrussi as a precise peninsula reference
Villa Ephrussi’s official access page identifies the villa and gardens on the peninsula, notes ownership by the Académie des Beaux-Arts, and explains its controlled visitor approach. The house, collections, formal garden, and position between bays provide a grounded visual context. They should not be turned into a claim that every Cap-Ferrat home is palatial or that an outside artwork has institutional association.
For the actual work, obtain artist and title records, medium, support, dimensions, weight, framing, glazing, condition images, reverse, labels, provenance, and edition information as relevant. Ask for close views of surfaces and edges. If the description invokes Belle Époque architecture, gardens, or Riviera history, request the evidence for any direct connection and label broader comparisons as interpretation.
