On these pages I will present images of Rome, chosen purely subjectively. I have been only three times to Rome and only buildings and views that I have personally seen and felt as interesting will be included. Images include newer photographs and 18th and 19th century drawings and engravings. I have scanned color photographs from color slides and edited them with Corel PhotoPaint. A full-screen image is also available for most of the drawings and few photographs. Color photographs are my own if not otherwise mentioned. This english version doesn't have textual intoductions.

And, of course, these pages are continuously under construction. All kinds of comments are welcome. I have already received valuable comments and corrections from Mr. Bill Thayer.
