This is a painting of the Temple of Apollo, adjacent to the main port town on the Greek island of Naxos. This scenic hill topped with the "Portara" archway constructed from the remnants of an Ancient Greek temple is a popular place for tourists and locals alike to wander at sunset. We visited here in June of 2023.

The small outcrop of land, now connected by a short stone causeway, is best known in mythology for being the location where Theseus abandoned Ariadne, who had accompanied him on the journey home from Crete after he killed the Minotaur.
