Michael: Roman Holiday III

View from the English Cemetery, where Keats and Shelley are buried, of the Pyramid of Cestius. The pyramid is a mausoleum for a Roman magistrate, dating from 18BC; the city walls were built around it. It's 37m high (I couldn't fit it all on the paper), and still covered in white marble.
