The VENTE COROT mark in the lower left corner is placed within a path that runs from that corner diagonally up towards the right where it is blocked from view by the rocky terrain.

Ancona with a View of the Arch of Trajan

Scattered figures inhabit the street. Beyond the arch may be glimpsed the waters of a bay and a hill rising above the far shore.
