Les Plaisirs a Rome

Name/Title

Les Plaisirs a Rome

Description

"What makes our life? Baths, wine, women," was written on the marble of a tomb. Pleasures and voluptuousness! We are far from the severe image that the Romans too often suffer from, confined to the role of hardened legionary or phrase-mongering politician. If the beginnings were austere and difficult, with the conquest of the world, they quickly affirmed their determination to enjoy life.
