Jakob Alt

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black-and-white drawing of a large rocky outcrop with a fort on top. The outcrop is tall and conical in shape. The outcrop is surrounded by water on the right, bottom, and left sides. In the foreground on the bottom center, there is a small island with rocks and grass. Two people are in a canoe on the water in front of the outcrop. The fort on top of the outcrop consists of multiple stone buildings. The fort is surrounded by a stone wall on the left side of the outcrop. There are hills and a town to the right of the outcrop. The sky above is cloudy. The image is framed by a thin black line. The background of the image is off-white. The title at the bottom of the image reads "UNGERN" on one line and "Zweite Ansicht von Theben" in cursive on the line below.
