Black-and-white photograph of the Parthenon. The Parthenon is a large stone building with a row of columns along its front and sides, on a hill to the right. Broken columns and stones are scattered around the foreground. The Parthenon's columns are tall and slender. The building has a flat top. In the background, a cloudy sky and hills are visible. The photograph is mounted on a piece of cardboard with a rough, aged edge. The image shows ruins, with crumbling stone structures and rubble scattered throughout. The photograph's color tone is grayscale.
