Description

Dozens of people are gathered on a stepped stone terrace against a tall wall of large ashlar blocks and smaller rubble masonry. Several men in suits and glasses sit at the left and right, while women and girls in dresses sit or stand in the centre. Two white draped statues stand against the wall, and a boy stands on the steps near one of them.
