Mansion a la Pride and Prejudice?

One interesting thing about antique books is that instead of printing a picture directly on the pages, some books have pictures pasted into them. Who knew, right? I am guessing that is what this picture is. It's really small, only 2 inches by 3 inches or so, and the paper is very thin.

If you've seen any of the versions of Pride and Prejudice perhaps you can see what I see in this picture. Whether it's Colin Firth, Laurence Olivier, or
Matthew Macfadyen, it all works in my head in this house. Especially the end of the movie when Mr. Darcy is about to go in and express his feelings one last time. Sigh, love the book, love the movies.
