Salamis at sunset
Description
A single standing man, wearing a dark jacket over a light shirt and pale trousers, is the central figure in the foreground. Behind him rise many tall, slender columns with carved capitals, set in a line over a low stone-walled area. Trees and a dark band of vegetation fill the background beneath a dramatic, cloudy sky with the sun breaking through.
English
An elderly man in a dark jacket and light trousers stands among rows of tall columns at the ancient site of Salamis. Ruined walls and rubble stones lie in the foreground under a cloudy evening sky.
