Description

Physical Description:

A large structure of light-colored stone is seen in the distance at an oblique angle, its massive arch entrance facing left. Its windows reflect the same arch shape on a smaller scale, and it features one large dome and many minarets. In the foreground, two men sit at the edge of a smooth body of water.
