Salamis: the palaestra of the gymnasium
Description
Several columns stand in a long line receding into the middle distance, with one tall column with a carved capital in the left foreground. A ruined stone wall runs along the right edge. Broken column drums and worked blocks lie scattered across the paving in the foreground, and pine trees and further ruins appear behind the columns under a partly cloudy sky.
English
A row of tall columns with Corinthian capitals stands across a paved court at Salamis. Fallen column drums and carved blocks lie in the foreground, with a stone wall on the right and trees beyond.
