The ruins of Salamis seen through a stone arch
Description
The dark, rough-surfaced rock arch frames the scene in the foreground and upper edges. Beyond it, a sunlit path runs between low, broken stone walls and blocks, with scrub and shrubs on the open ground to the right. The sky is pale and largely empty.
English
A view through a large rock arch towards the ruins of Salamis, with low standing walls and a narrow path leading between them under a pale sky. Shrubs grow on the open ground beyond the arch.
