Synopsis

Excerpt from The Monuments of Christian Rome, From Constantine to the Renaissance

The complexity of Rome is at once an allurement and a source of despair. As a growing modern capital it turns its back upon its past, and as a historic museum it bristles with periods and styles so varied they cannot be set forth with the lucidity that makes the art of Athens comparatively easy to grasp.
