Description
View of Školj Castle, Slovenia, as seen from a scenic portion of the Reka valley, standing on a rocky hill overlooking the Reka River. The opening of the Škocjan caves can be seen in the distance, behind a river bend, right below the castle. The views gathered in this book were drawn by Cassas between 1782 and 1788[1].
The caption reads in the original French: Vue du château de Novoscollio ou Neukossel, situé au-dessus de la vallée de la Ruecca, près San Canciano, dans les environs de Trieste.
