Outline for the Arch of Constantine:
Put in what it is people have been wanting to be added, but has not been added yet. In order to do this, compare the talk page requests with the article. The perspective of the people in the time could maybe be more represented? Put in a chronological order (like suggested)? Should the style be adjusted?
Rough Draft For The Arch Of Constantine: (It in some ways this will not be developed in the ways the outline suggested...I can't provide everything right now)
I took the picture to the left myself when I went to Italy.
In Sculptural Style: Some think, or, at least, thought around 2010, that the head of Constantine talked about is in fact the bronze head in the Capitoline Museums.[1] In General Description: The Arch of Constantine is the biggest triumphal arch.[2] In History: Not only did the Roman senate give the arch for Constantine's victory, they also were celebrating decennia, a series of games that happens every decade for the romans. In this occasion they also said many prayers(votas).[3] In the first paragraph: Some recent looking into the arch and studying the arch has led people to believe that the arch was actually originally erected for Maxentius.[4] In Iconography: It could be that so many old parts were used because the builders themselves did not feel the artists of their time could do better than what had already been done by different people.[5] In Sculptural Style: The sculptors of Constantine's time were more interested in symbolism: both symbolism for religion as well as symbolism for history. This explains primitive look that can be seen in the work.[5] In general Description: The pedestals of the Arch of Constantine are taller than a third of the columns' height, respectively.[6] In General Description: The middle arch is therefore bigger than the side arches.[7] In History: The "triumphal arch" would be given new life in the future of architecture. It came up in the Renaissance, for example.[7] In General Description: The arches in Rome are the most complex out of all the arches that are left over from the past.[7]
