Description

A flight of stone steps rises on the right beside a high cut-stone wall, leading up to a higher terrace of ruined walls. In the middle distance a square stone block stands on a paved surface, and a low bench-like block lies in the foreground. A small tree and a distant building sit on the rising ground under a pale sky.
