Description

A bare earthen path runs from the foreground toward the sea on the horizon. Low stone wall foundations of cut blocks and rubble line the left side, and fallen stone blocks lie on the right beside a wall with a wire fence along its edge. Beyond the ruins, flat water extends to a faint line of distant land under a pale sky.

Description, scan 2
A rough earth path runs from the foreground into the distance between low ruined stone walls, with a stone-lined edge on the left. On the right, a wooden post fence with wire runs along a raised wall of stones, and scattered blocks lie on the ground. Beyond the ruins the flat sea fills the middle distance, with faint hills along the far horizon.
