The Dig
< [up a level]
|
One of the ways the Romans keep their ancient monuments, such as this Arch of Constantine, in good condition is through cleaning. Note the scaffolding going up on the right side. |
Another example of cleaning is Michelangelo's "The Last Judgement" painting, which was just cleaned in the 1990's. |
These remains are from the Roman Forum; you can still walk through the center of Roman economic, religous, governmental and social life. |
Even ruined columns from the days of the Roman Empire have their purpose, as home for thousands of stray cats. |
