Description

A dirt path runs between two lines of rough, piled stone walls, which look like low foundations or lines of rubble, into the middle distance. Low scrub-covered hills rise behind the site under a pale, empty sky, and a strip of sea shows at the far left. The stonework is irregular and partly collapsed, with loose stones scattered across the ground in the foreground.
