Colosseum Roman Arches - Rome Architecture Photography
The tiered arches of the Colosseum stack against a heavy, overcast Roman sky, the curved facade of the ancient amphitheatre holding its line against the weather. Officially the Flavian Amphitheatre, it was begun under Emperor Vespasian and completed in 80 CE under his son Titus, with seating for an estimated 50,000 spectators. Its surviving arcades stack the classical orders — Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian — one above the next, a deliberate lesson in Roman engineering. The grey sky strips away warmth and pushes attention onto the rhythm of the arches and the worn travertine stone. A photograph of two thousand years of geometry still standing.
