Limassol: roofs of the town and ships off the shore
Positive from the glass negative
Description
In the foreground, tiled roofs and flat-topped houses with a chimney stack slope down toward a walled yard with trees. Beyond them a low town of flat roofs extends to the left, with tall thin trees and a minaret-like spire. On the right, the sea fills the background, with several small sailing ships and boats moored off the shore. No people are visible.

The roofs of Limassol running down towards the sea, with small sailing ships moored off the shore. The 1981 print is the mirror image of the positive from the negative: one of the two is reversed left to right.
