Description:

Edmont Duthoit was a French draftsman from Amiens who came to Cyprus as a member of the second French mission to Phoenicia organized by Viollet-le-Duc. The mission consisted of Count De Vogue, Henri William Widdington and Edmonmt Duthoit and visited Cyprus in 1862 and 1865. Duthoit made more that three hundred sketches of Cyprus and was particularly fascinated by the Gothic monuments on the island. This is a view of the castle as seen from above. One can just make out what appears to be the tiny figure of a human standing inside the ruined walls
