El Deir Petra by David Roberts: The image depicts a landscape with a large, intricately carved stone building carved into the face of a mountain. The building has multiple levels with columns, windows and a flat roof with a small tower. A group of people in traditional clothing stand to the right of the building. The building is situated on a mountain slope with smaller structures and trees. A body of water and more mountains are visible in the background under a cloudy sky. The scene includes several large rocks and boulders scattered around.
