The Temple of Dendur, Showing the Pylon and Terrace
Watercolor painting of a desert landscape with ancient stone structures. The main structure has a tall pylon tower. A flat terrace extends from the right side of the pylon. A second, lower building with a small triangular window is on the left. The sky above is light blue with white clouds. A person sits on the ground in the foreground wearing a blue garment. The painting's surface is beige around the edges. Handwritten text in the bottom left reads, "Dender 21 Fev 1881." A rectangular stamp on the bottom right reads, "F.A. Bridgman NICE 1954."
