Rome. Italy. View of the monolithic Corinthian column pronaos and flight of steps of the Temple of Antoninus and Faustina in the Roman Forum. Built in 141 and dedicated by Emperor Antoninus Pius to his deceased wife, the temple is one of better preserved building in the Forum. The temple was converted into the church of San Lorenzo in Miranda in the 12th century; however it kept its original columned portico. The Roman Forum was the centre of political, commercial and judicial life in ancient Rome.
