Darkness Falls in Rome

About twenty centuries ago, the Roman empire used slaves to construct this building to last. It did. But the empire and the emperors did not. Sometimes, the magic of twilight can tell how humans always fail short trying to fathom cosmic time.

 

Shot at the same angle, but a bit farther than the previous one. Stitched three photos.
