EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of the amphitheatre in Arles, France takes us back to ancient Roman times. The photo print, captured by Roman himself in the 2nd century AD, showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance of this historical landmark. Restored in the 4th century and fortified during the 8th and 12th centuries, this two-story structure boasts an impressive array of 60 arches adorned with both Doric and Corinthian columns. With a size measuring at a staggering 136x107 meters, it is no wonder that this amphitheatre holds up to 20,000 spectators. While originally intended for theatrical performances during classical times, it has since evolved into hosting bullfights from as early as 1830. This cultural shift adds another layer of intrigue to its already rich history. The photograph itself captures every intricate detail of this magnificent arena from a bird's eye perspective. Its timeless beauty is further enhanced by Bridgeman Images' expert printing techniques. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported through time to witness firsthand the splendor and majesty that once filled these hallowed grounds. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic prowess that continues to captivate audiences even today.
