Description

Two rectangular dressed stone blocks lie in the ground, the nearer one dominating the frame with a rough, pitted surface. A broken, irregular chunk of pale stone sits on its face near the lower centre. Loose soil and the edges of the cut around the blocks surround them, and the photograph is taken from above at an angle.
