The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the intricate architectural elements to the lush greenery surrounding it.

David Roberts' expertise as both an artist and an archaeologist shines through in this masterpiece. His passion for capturing cultural heritage can be seen in his meticulous representation of Phylae's main temple.
