Caiaphas Looking Towards Mount Carmel

David Roberts

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned landscape drawing of a beach scene. A large body of water, likely a sea or a large lake, occupies the right half. Sunlight reflects on the water's surface. A curved beach with sand and sparse vegetation slopes down to the water on the left. A few people dressed in traditional attire stand on the beach near the shore. Two horses are led by people on the left. In the foreground, the remains of a wooden structure, possibly a shipwreck, lay scattered on the beach. A hill with a town built on it rises in the background on the left. The sky above is cloudy. The scene depicts "Caiaphas Looking Towards Mount Carmel" by David Roberts.
