David Roberts

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a landscape with a valley, a pool of water and buildings on a hillside. The valley has brown and beige-colored rolling hills on both sides. There are several white buildings on the right side of the image on top of a hill. The buildings have flat roofs and small windows. The buildings appear to be made of stone or concrete. The pool of water is rectangular and located in the lower center of the image. There are stone steps leading down to the pool. People are sitting or standing on the steps. Some people are on horseback. The sky is light blue and hazy. The overall color palette is muted, with shades of brown, beige, and gray dominating the scene.
