Légende

Arch of Titus - Rome, 1850. 'The Arch of Titus...which is in great part preserved, was erected by the Senate and people of Rome, in the reign of Domitian, to perpetuate the memory of the conquest of Jerusalem, and triumph of Titus over the vanquished Jews, and is situated on what was the highest point of the Via Sacra, thence called Summa Via Sacra. Like the other triumphal arches...it is a lofty massive structure of white marble, presenting a two-fold facade of similar character, looking north and south. It is, however, only pierced bv one arch; the entablature is supported by four columns on each facade...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
