Aerial view of Ulysses’ palace in Ithaca. The drawing is in landscape format. It is organized within a frame drawn in ink. Inscriptions are visible in the margins.
The palace is set in the middle of the countryside, on the heights of a rocky spur. The front door opens onto a courtyard. A portico leads to the rooms. Kilns are placed in a courtyard. Mountains and the sea can be seen in the distance.
