The Palatine Hill, (/'pæl?ta?n/; Latin: Collis Palatium or Mons Palatinus; Italian: Palatino [pala'ti?no]) which is the centremost of the Seven Hills of Rome, is one of the most ancient parts of the city and has been called "the first nucleus of the Roman Empire." It stands 40 metres above the Roman Forum, looking down upon it on one side, and upon the Circus Maximus on the other. From the time of Augustus Imperial palaces were built here. Prior to extensions to the Palace of Tiberius and the construction of the Domus Augustana by Domitian, 81-96 AD, the hill was mostly occupied by the houses of the rich. The perimeter measures 2,182 meters and the area is 255,801 square meters or 63 acres, with a circumference of 1,740 meters while the Regionary Catalogues of the fourth century give a perimeter of 11,510 feet or 3,402 meters (equals 131 acres.
The Roman Forum, also known by its Latin name Forum Romanum (Italian: Foro Romano), is a rectangular forum (plaza) surrounded by the ruins of several important ancient government buildings at the center of the city of Rome. Citizens of the ancient city referred to this space, originally a marketplace, as the Forum Magnum, or simply the Forum.
For centuries the Forum was the center of day-to-day life in Rome: the site of triumphal processions and elections; the venue for public speeches, criminal trials, and gladiatorial matches; and the nucleus of commercial affairs. Here statues and monuments commemorated the city's great men. The teeming heart of ancient Rome, it has been called the most celebrated meeting place in the world, and in all history. Located in the small valley between the Palatine and Capitoline Hills, the Forum today is a sprawling ruin of architectural fragments and intermittent archaeological excavations attracting 4.5 million or more sightseers yearly.

For this fragment I used alcohol inks on the fragment itself. I stamped a piece of tan colored paper with the image and then layered the fragment on top of it using glossy accents in-between.
fragment of ceramic found on the shore by Alan while I was photographing the Clyde at Port Glasgow earlier in the week. Not sure what it's from or even if it's all that old, but an interesting item to add to the occasional table

Cement fragment, graffiti. 1990s.
This fragment placed on a plaque is an example of the memorialization of discarded objects which are technically trash. The role of the wall transcends its lack of intrinsic value as a piece of crumbling concrete to evoke the euphoria of November 9, 1989.
