Description

A stone building with shuttered windows and an arched doorway fitted with an iron gate stands at left, partly hidden by a large leafy tree. A low stone wall with dense shrubs and broad-leaved plants runs across the right, with another tree beside it. A slender tower with a pointed top rises in the background above the wall, over a dirt track with pale patches in the foreground.
