When in Rome I was unable to find any copies of Piranesi's Vedute di Roma to use as a visual reference. However, his views must have become imprinted within me, for upon returning home, I discovered that my photographs had unerringly aligned themselves with his vision.
Particularly eerie was the small figure in the foreground of the Arch of Titus . . .

Very cool side-by-side comparisons. That last one, however, is not of Jupiter Tonans. Nor is the Round Temple the Temple of Cybele. Nor again is that the temple of Concord.
