Description
A row of tall columns runs along the back of a large paved court, with a stone wall behind them and dense trees beyond. In the foreground, column drums and blocks lie scattered around a set of standing column bases. A tripod hoist stands at the left, and several figures are at work or walking across the paving.
English
Workers and visitors move among fallen drums and standing columns of a long colonnade at Salamis. A tripod hoist stands at the left, and a row of columns lines the far wall of the open court.
