Arch Of Constantine

The first most significant pieces of ancient Roman art and sculpture is Arch of Constantine. After any of the Emperors won, it was customary in ancient Rome to erect a triumphal monument. One of them, the Arch of Constantine, was erected in recognition of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great's victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian in 312 AD. It took roughly three years to finish and is located halfway between the Colosseum and Palatine Hill. The building project started in 312 AD and was finished in 315 AD. The Roman Emperor in 324 and the Western Emperor in 1312 were both Constantine, a prominent member of the Roman court. He gained notoriety for his battles with the Persians in 297 and 298 while serving Diocletian and Galerius.

As per Constantine's request, a massive arch with measurements of 69 feet in height and 85 feet in breadth was constructed. He desired for the monument to rank among the most important ones built during the Roman era. The arch's three components gave it a distinctive look that everyone found attractive. The monument's three arches—a large one in the center and smaller ones on either side—were all made of concrete riveted into marble. The fight and other artworks expressing different stories from that time period make up the bottom section.

The Arch of Constantine is one of the greatest remaining triumphal arches, along with the Arch of Titus and the Arch of Septimius Severus, despite the fact that the majority of other arches and monuments have vanished.
