Looks very like a photo I took of "Anais Segalas in Australia (and NZ)" scrambling through ferals in shade, in South Australia. Re understocks: this rose was used as an understock here - no idea why people would use a suckerer, but after all there were early (disastrous) experiments of using rugosas as understocks for standards (tree roses). At least "Fantin-Latour" doesn't sucker, which to me supports the suggestion that it might have been used as an understock. But not in Australia as far as I know. I don't know De la Grifferaie well enough to comment.

Gorgeous. I just wish Helpmefind could support higher quality images. This beautiful picture deserves crisp clarity.

Thank you. It's a garden well worth visiting on one of its Open Days, for those in Victoria. The huge Mutabilis plants climbing trees along the drive are especially noteworthy. See also the photo 417878 of the pair of Alchymist on the barn. I wonder though if there is a problem with your computer screen? The foreground of the pond photo looks sharp to me.
