The Coliseum

The Coliseum

This is a view of the Coliseum that isn't seen that often. You can see that two of the outer walls are missing. The Romans tended to recycle their antiquities. Tons of marble were removed from the Coliseum and other monuments to build The Vatican City. During World War II, Muss0lini's war machine removed all the iron supports to recycle them into weapons.

This painting was a gift to a friend.
