Description

A wide view taken from a height over low, scrubby hills and dense trees towards a dark expanse of sea that fades into a hazy, cloud-filled sky. In the foreground, the tops of ancient stone walls, built of large squared blocks and rubble, run along the bottom of the frame. A small offshore rock or islet is visible on the water.
