Скачать или смотреть ROCKY'S ITALY: Rome - The Baths of Caracalla

Constructed in the 3rd century CE under the reigns of emperors Septimius Severus and Caracalla (from which the baths take their name), the Baths of Caracalla were the second largest in Rome. They remained in use until the 6th century CE but eventually fell into ruin. The massive brick and concrete vaults have served as inspiration for many modern buildings such as Pennsylvania Station in New York City and Chicago’s Union Station. Famous works of art such as the “Farnese Hercules” and the “Farnese Bull” were excavated from the baths during the reign of Renaissance Pope Paul III.
