"Cleopatra's Terrace" is a sepia-toned photograph taken by Frank Jay Haynes before 1887. The image depicts a natural formation of mineral terraces and pools, likely in a geothermally active area. Haynes was known for his landscape photography, capturing the beauty of the American West, often focusing on natural wonders. This photograph, with its intricate details and soft tones, exemplifies his artistic approach to capturing the grandeur of nature.
