Title: Ancient Rome - City of Marble. Order No.: A1-0726. Location: Rome

Augustus boasted that he found Rome a city of brick and left it of marble.

Rome was mud and smoky skies; the rank smell of the Tiber and the exotically spiced cooking fires of a hundred different nationalities. Rome was white marble and gilding and heady perfumes; the blare of trumpets and the shrieking of market-women and the eternal, sub-aural hum of more people, speaking more languages that Gaius had ever imagined existed, crammed together on seven hills whose contours had long ago disappeared beneath this encrustation of humanity. Rome was the pulsing heart of the world.

Excellence!
"I’ve studied why that picture of the Duomo is so good, how even that exquisite lily gets well gilded. I see that you’ve caught the shadow at a critical point, the moment it darkens the plane on the left, with that time told as well by the darkening edge above, on the circle of the window and, curving then toward the sky, across the slope of the dome. So as well as about great architecture, the picture is about time and about physics; it moves and reveals. A fine snap indeed! ... among many".
