EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the ancient city of Rome in the 19th century. Taken by Calvert Jones, a British photographer and reverend, this image captures the awe-inspiring Colosseum from a unique perspective. The Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, stands proudly as one of Rome's most iconic landmarks. Built in the 1st century AD, it has withstood centuries of history and remains an enduring symbol of Roman architecture and grandeur. In this photograph, we see the majestic exterior of the Colosseum against a backdrop of clear skies. The ruins evoke a sense of both beauty and decay; their weathered stones tell stories of gladiatorial battles and spectacles that once enthralled thousands.

We imagine ourselves amidst bustling crowds witnessing thrilling contests within these very walls. The Colosseum continues to be a magnet for tourists from around the world who come to marvel at its sheer size and architectural brilliance. It serves as a testament not only to ancient Roman engineering but also to our enduring fascination with history. Calvert Jones' skillful capture allows us to appreciate both the magnitude and delicate
