Between the Colosseum and the Arch of Titus, along the triumphal route of ancient Rome, is the Arch of Constantine. It consists of three arches, the middle one being larger than the other two, which are decorated with beautiful reliefs, statues, and columns. The monument is made of marble and brick and is 21 meters high and 25 meters wide.
It’s the first arch that celebrates a victory, not over a foreign power, but a Roman rival. Moreover, the monument reflects the changes of the Constantinian era. It represents the greatness of thought and the divine inspiration that characterized the Roman people.
