well here you go, some pictures of the arch of titus. when referred to in
art histroy, it is the arch of divine titus, and divine vespasian. its known
as this because vespasian, the father of titus began constructing this arch
for his son after his son's victory in jerusalem after he quelled some revolt
or another. but Vespasian died in 79AD and then Titus dies in 81AD so the emperor
after them dedicated it to them as divine cause in rome if you were king and then
you died, you were a god, or something like that.
