This is a view of Toledo, Spain. First settled as a Carpentanian community in the second century BCE, Toledo has been a government center for the Romans, Visigoths, the Islamist Caliphate, and Castillian kings. It was a city the accommodated intellectuals from a myriad of cultures through the centuries.

Compare this photo with the painting by El Grecco which was done in about the year 1600 (exact year is debated). See:
