These two are so cute-- he writes songs to her in English with her as the character of a hedgehog, and when the songs played in the boat all their friends sang along.

This is the hand of the Emperor Constantine the Great, who sits outside York Minister, near the place where he was proclaimed Emperor in 306. I just liked the texture and pose.

Arch of Constantine is a triumphal arch in Rome, situated between the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill.

This is the statue of Constantine outside York Minster.

 

Given the statue pedestal is about four foot high, I only noticed whilst clambering on it to get a good shot of his hands that the sword is broken. No idea what the symbolism of this is.

A shot of the Arch of Constantine taken from the second level of the Colosseum.

Located right next to the Colosseum, the Arch of Constantine was dedicated in 315 AD.

 

Most of the reliefs and other decorative material are not original to the arch--they were removed from other locations and "repurposed." Many say that sculptors at this time lacked the ability to make them, and resorted to using existing items.

The Arch of Constantine stands right beside the Colosseum, between it and the Palatine Hill which rises on the right of the photo. It spans what used to be a road along which marched triumphal processions. It was built to commemorate one of Constantine's victories.

I love this image of Constantine's Arch, taken from the inside of the Roman Colosseum on the upper level looking out.
