Description

A sloping excavated surface of packed earth with many loose stones and rubble exposed across it. A thin striped pole stands upright near the top left edge, and the sea or a flat expanse of water fills the background on the left. Stones are clustered in the lower centre, some larger and paler than the surrounding soil.
