Description

A dark view of excavated stone walling at the Cholades temples at Soli. Courses of rough, flat stones form a wall and a vertical, stepped face at the centre, with more stone masonry rising on the left and right. The surrounding soil is heavily shadowed, so the stonework is the clear focus.
