The Capitoline Museum constructed a special interior plaza with massive skylighting
to display some of their greatest treasures. That's the original equestrian bronze of
Marcus Aurelius from 176 A.D. at left. (We'll see Marcus without his clothes later
in today's set.) And of course the other is the famous she-wolf sucklng Romulus
and Remus, which many, but not all, experts date to the 5th Century B.C.
Really amazing stuff.
