L. D. Fishbein. Derbent. View of the Fortress, 1975

A landscape of 1975 showing the Derbent fortress of Naryn-Kala. Against a light blue cloudy sky the artist painted the central part of the fortress on a high hill: on one side its walls stretch far into the mountains, and on the other they reach the seashore.

In the foreground, at the foot of the mountain, are sown fields, dense vineyards and houses. The work is painted in oil on cardboard and set in a white cardboard mount with a smooth white frame. Its size is 34 by 20.5 cm.
