Villa Les Roses was built in 1910. The photograph below shows another entrance to this lovely house in Cap d'Ail.
Notice the gate posts above. They appear to be tree trunks but are, in fact, fashioned in concrete. You see this on terraces in the south of France. Instead of wrought iron railings or carved balustrades, you have what look like criss-crossed branches of trees but are actually concrete made to look like wood.
