Rome — Seated 50 000. Vintage travel badge drawn in flat colour, Gazetteer Bureau.

Rome

Seated 50 000

Opened in AD 80 and seated for fifty thousand. The Bureau lists the amphitheatre as standing, in part, and files the outstanding repairs under long-term maintenance. Building began in 72 under one emperor and finished in 80 under his son. Estimates of the capacity run from fifty to eighty thousand depending on the century; the register prints the lower figure, on the principle that a seating plan should not be optimistic. The Bureau has found no comparable structure still in use for public assembly.

The source image

The badge is drawn, not photographed. Each drawing works from a reference image in the public domain or under a free licence — a photochrom print, a photograph, an etching. Here is the one used for this destination, and why it was chosen.

The drawing follows an 1890s photochrom print held by the Library of Congress, showing the Colosseum with the Meta Sudans before it. The elliptical ring is broken on one side: it is that break, not the arcade, which makes the monument recognisable above all others. Both figures on the band come from the same file: the work begins in 72 under Vespasian and ends in 80 under Titus, and the amphitheatre is put at fifty thousand seats — estimates run from fifty to eighty thousand depending on the period. The Meta Sudans is gone: the conical fountain in the foreground of the photochrom was demolished in the 1930s. The drawing keeps it, since it follows that view.
