The Ramparts at Noon

About this composition

Nineteen kilometres of rammed earth, raised in the 1120s and repaired every generation since with the same red mud. At noon there is no modelling at all: one flat plane of ochre, a hard black line of shadow at its foot, a bleached sky. It is a harder subject than it looks, because there is nothing to hide behind.

Rammed earth, hard shadow, white sky
