Colosseum in Sunlight

Late afternoon, hard shadows in the arches, and the stone turned gold by low sun.

The viewpoint is close and angled upward from the cobbles, so the building curves away from you and fills most of the canvas. That's a more interesting composition than the usual straight-on postcard shot, and it's what makes the finished piece worth hanging.

An obvious buy for anyone who has stood there, and a good one for someone about to. It suits a hallway or a study, and it sits well beside other travel pieces.

Two sections carry the work: the tiers of arches, each with its own light and shadow side, and the cobblestone foreground where every stone is a separate irregular shape.

The 24-color version simplifies the stonework into bolder masses and speeds things along. This Rome paint by numbers is a case for 36: the travertine moves through many close creams, ochres and warm browns depending on how the light strikes it, and the arches only read as depth because the shadowed tones stay distinct from the lit ones. We recommend the 36-color version for this design.
