Rome: the Eternal City
Italians have a natural flair for drama and nowhere is this portrayed better than in Rome, their capital city. Rome is steeped in drama from its earliest leaders such as Julius Caesar, Nero and the Roman General Scipio, who defeated Hannibal. View the crumbling columns of the Colosseum and the Forum and imagine the dramas which took place there. Visit the Vatican and witness the breathtaking drama of Christianity. From its earliest days as a settlement on the Palatine Hill, Rome grew to rule a vast empire stretching from northern England to North Africa. Together with Jerusalem, Rome became the centre of the Christian World. Photographs taken between 2007 and 2010.
