The Temple, Paris by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs. Black and white drawing of a medieval walled city with a stone wall and towers in the foreground. The wall runs from the bottom-right corner to the center-left side of the image. Towers made of brick or stone are present on the wall, with one in the foreground featuring a conical roof. A path leads to a gate on the left side of the image. Trees and bushes grow along the wall and in the foreground. People are walking on a path in the foreground. Buildings with steeply pitched roofs and steeples are visible in the background. The sky is light-colored and featureless. The drawing is signed in the bottom-left corner. The image is framed by a thin border.
