Theatre at Kourion
Description
Rows of pale stone seats curve across the foreground, rising toward a stone wall along the upper edge of the theatre. At the lower right, a paved area and scattered stone blocks lie near a tree. In the background, flat fields extend to a coastline and a strip of blue sea under a hazy sky.
English
The semicircular tiered seating of the open-air theatre at Kourion rises in white stone steps toward a low wall at the top. Beyond the theatre, flat cultivated land runs down to the sea on the right.
