Description

A tall, weathered pale stone block stands on a raised base in the left foreground, beside a trench where rough blocks lie in the earth. At right a column drum sits on a square base, and behind them are ruined walls of cut stone under a cloudy sky, with flat land and a distant horizon beyond.
