Description

Rubble walling of large and small stones fills the left and upper parts of the frame, with a tree and low hills against the sky above. On the right, a smooth pale face of earth or plaster, cracked in places, rises from the lower edge and meets the stonework above. The print is mounted on a dark card with a number label in the lower corner.
