500 random artworks based on mine and mine only. I'll try to represent diversity, but in the end I'm still an aesthetically prejudiced Wisconsinite. I like food and beer, art and learning, books and TV, afghans and shorts.
Trajan's Column is a monumental tower, 35 meters tall, grazing the sky, reaching towards the height of human achievement as perfected in war and made eternal in stone. Like a coiled snake, a 190 meter frieze winds its way up, depicting the Romans fantastic victory over worthy foes the Dacians. Symbols, personifications, and Trajan himself abound amongst the intricate, propagandist carving.
