Roman Triumphal Arch Architecture - Historical Design & Symbolism #13347 (License: Personal Use)

This line-drawing depicts a multi-bayed Roman triumphal arch featuring a central large arch flanked by two smaller side arches, supported by Corinthian columns and richly decorated with narrative friezes, roundels (tondi), and inscribed attic panels. Statues stand atop the entablature, likely representing emperors or deities, while bas-reliefs below depict military victories, processions, and mythological scenes-typical of imperial commemorative architecture. The precision of the drawing highlights structural elements like keystones, imposts, and socles, reflecting scholarly reconstruction efforts from archaeological evidence.
