Description

Excavated walls of Vouni Palace run across a hilltop, with large dressed blocks in the middle and rougher rubble masonry in the foreground. A rounded stone structure sits at the right edge beside a rough, stony ground surface. Two people walk along the ridge at the upper right, and a third small figure stands in the distance, with hazy hills and sea beyond.
