Added a suggestion for a belatedly added second image.

The bridge, wedged between living rock rather than with engineered approaches, immediately reminded me of the Mostar bridge that was rebuilt.. or possibly the (old) Teufelsbrücke on the St Gotthard Pass. And the boat (which /surely/ isn't a Thames Barge) looks more like something you'd see on a river or lake than on the Mediterranean. In short, I think we need to be cautious lest it turn out to be a fanciful (albeit fascinating) composite. | |
