A woman in a light sweater and dark skirt sits on a rough stone block in the foreground, holding a notebook and resting her head on one hand. Behind her, a tall fluted column with a Corinthian capital stands beside a large tree. To the left a camera on a tripod is set up near fallen stone blocks, and a line of standing columns runs across the middle distance. A partly visible person in a dark coat stands at the right edge.
