Rome, Italy. Night view of the Pantheon seen from North, from Piazza della Rotonda.

According to a theory, the original building was rectangular and facing South, and was totally reworked under emperor Adrian in 118 - 125 a.D. with the insertion of the round cell and the moving of the entrance to the North side, repeating the old writing on the new front.

Roman, born 1966, photographer by vocation, I received my long-desired first camera when I was 7 years old, a Kodak Instamatic 36, and since then photography is one of my main interests in life. I work mainly in colour, using both digital and film, and develop my colour films by myself with a Jobo CPP-2 rotary processor. My main subjects of interest are urban landscape and sculpture, photographed with an explicitly descriptive attitude. My photographs have also been published in travel guides, newspapers and text books all over the world, from the US and Brazil to Japan. Please note that the Fine Art America watermark will not show in the print you buy. This only shows in this web site.
