View from Kourion
Description
The blue sea fills the left side of the view, with a pale sandy beach curving along the bay toward the right. Tall, eroded white and grey cliffs rise on the right, topped with scrub. In the foreground, green and ploughed fields are divided by rows of trees, with a small whitewashed building near the centre-left and a further headland visible in the distance.
