“Spoils of War” (Romans sacking Jerusalem 70 AD). Arch of Titus detail. Rome, Italy.

When I studied at the Hebrew University, I took a class called Development of Judaism and Early Christianity. It was awesome because the professor was AMAZING and also because we took some seriously quality field trips (like, to Masada, and the Western Wall tunnels). Our professor was always going on about the Arch of Titus, and when I went to Italy that spring, my friend Adee - who had also been in the class - and I wouldn’t rest until we saw this particular image ourselves. 

It’s pretty amazing irl.
