Description

A paved floor runs across the foreground, with a band of dark and light checkered paving crossing diagonally at the lower right. Behind it stand low ruined walls of rough masonry and a squared stone block, with a small upright column-like piece and a rounded stone object on the left. Steps descend at the far right, and a flat, pale expanse with low hills lies beyond the ruins.
