Carnac, Egypt: pencil drawing of ruins

A pencil drawing of tumbled architectural ruins: a fluted column with a carved capital stands at the left, while massive fallen stone blocks and a broken column shaft jumble across the foreground. Soft grey shading and loose hatching describe the stone, and the sketch bears initials at lower left.
