The image presents a large, vertical analemmatic sundial affixed to a light-colored stone wall. This sundial is located at the Palace of La Merced in Córdoba, Spain. The sundial's surface features a grid of intersecting black metal lines and curves, representing hour lines and declination curves. Roman numerals are visible, marking hours from VIII to XII in the upper section and X, XI, XII, I, II, III in the lower sections. Several Spanish inscriptions are integrated into the design, including "SAGITARIO" (Sagittarius) and "NOVIEMBRE" (November) in the upper left, "MEDIODIA" (Midday) running vertically in the center-right, and "FIN DELAPRI" (likely "Fin de la primavera" - End of Spring) towards the bottom right. A decorative stone carving, resembling a winged coat of arms or crest with a crown, is positioned above the sundial's upper edge. In the lower left, a rectangular plaque, partially obscured, contains text that mentions "CORDOBA" and "BRONCE." A branch with dark green leaves extends into the upper-left quadrant of the frame, partially obscuring parts of the sundial and wall. The wall itself is constructed from regularly cut, light-colored stone blocks.
