Its intricate building elements, decorations, and sections are a testament to their exceptional craftsmanship. From arches and capitals to columns and friezes, every aspect exudes an unparalleled level of artistic brilliance. The photograph itself was taken around 1890 by Brogi from Alinari, allowing us a glimpse into history while preserving its timeless beauty. It encapsulates Europe's rich heritage spanning over two millennia – from the first millennium A. D. through the second. One cannot help but marvel at the exquisite sculptures adorning this facade in high relief.
