Colosseum

My favorite work of art is the Colosseum of Rome. 

It was build about 1920 years ago by the Flavian emperors. The Colosseum was made with travertino, tuff, tiles and roman cement. It have aneliptical shape and which mesures 188m  and 156 the shorter one. Underground it have two steps, and avobe it there are three floors of arcades and a fourth storey with windows. There were eighty arches on every floor, divided by pillars with a half column.

Colosseum was the point of meeting to saw sows like the gladiators' fights or fight with beasts, the public executions of the reprobates to death that they were coming from all parts of the Empire to find here his last final moment.

After the imperial times the Colosseum was abandoned, but today is a scenary for important events or shows. 

It is visited by milions of people every year.

I like this work of art because I think that's very beautiful in spite the horrible things that were done there.
