A man, identified as Caius Marius, sits on top of the ruins of Carthage. He is hunched over with his head resting in his hands. Behind him, there is a large body of water and an urban settlement. There are boats in the water. The full moon is low in the sky. It is partially obscured by clouds, and subtly illuminates the ruins. Full-page illustration.
