SubjectTriumphal arches
NOTES: The triumphal arch was built during the reign of the emperor Augustus to honour the veterans for whom the city was founded. It was later altered during the time of Tiberius. This comes from a sketchbook put together by Ambrose Phillipps containing measured drawings and engravings of French and Roman buildings as well as designs for the house and garden buildings at Garendon Park, Leicestershire, the compiler's home.
