Description

A dirt track runs diagonally from the lower right toward a whitewashed building with a domed roof, a cross on top and an arched doorway behind an iron gate. In the middle ground, rubble stones and low dry-stone walls rise in terraces, with a man standing on a wall at left and a small figure beside the building's entrance. In the lower left, a low white wall with square pillars and an iron railing encloses a gate.
