View of the Acropolis on a hill behind the Temple of Jupiter Olympius, also called the Columns of Hadrian. The remains of the Temple consist of several large Corinthian columns. Several men sit in chairs facing the camera at the foot of the columns along the Temple. To the left of the Temple of Jupiter Olympius are two large, free-standing columns, behind which, the Acropolis is visible.
