This is an image of an etching or print depicting a historical architectural scene. The etching shows a view through an arched gateway or passage—presumably the remains of an old aqueduct, most likely the Aqueduct of Valens mentioned at the bottom of the image. The archway frames a view down a street or passage, with buildings on either side and a clear sky above. The aqueduct itself appears aged with some structural details eroded or missing, yet it stands strong as the central element of the composition. The image has a strong play of light and shadow, suggesting a depth that takes the viewer's eye through the arch and into the distance. The bottom part of the image contains text that reads, "AQUEDUCT DE VALENS (Constantinople)", which suggests that the depicted structure is the Valens Aqueduct in what is now Istanbul, Turkey but historically was known as Constantinople. The left bottom corner of the sheet bears a signature or mark that appears to be "GP" or similar, quite possibly the artist's initials. The etching is centered on a larger sheet of paper with ample margins around it. The paper shows signs of age as indicated by minor discoloration and slight wear along the edges. The piece conveys historical and artistic value, capturing a sense of the past through intricate line work and careful shading.

The image shows an etching or print depicting the "Aqueduct of Valens" in Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul). The artwork captures an ancient aqueduct structure with multiple arches. The surrounding scene includes old buildings on either side of a street, and the area beneath the arches seems to be used for some day-to-day activities. The etching is rendered in fine detail, highlighting the textures of stone, wood, and other elements. The aqueduct dominates the center of the composition, with lush greenery visible on top and emerging from parts of the structure. Features such as shadows and light are carefully illustrated to provide a sense of depth and dimension to the scene. The text "AQUEDUC DE VALENS (Constantinople)" is visible beneath the image, denoting the title and location of the architecture depicted. The print is framed by a generous margin of blank space, indicating it might have been part of a collection or intended for further framing.
