Ancient drawings by Jenniflower
I photographed these inside the coliseum. There is an ongoing (quite new) exhibition running there, with all kinds of artifacts, drawings, sculptures etc. that have been found in or near the coliseum.
It depicts what went on in the coliseum many years ago, showing 2 gladiators, with a large tiger.
Sad to see that the gladiators have a spear and a knife of sorts, so no doubting the outcome of this event :( Ironic that the symbol above the tiger depicts a target...
The Romans of the day loved the spectacle though.
I am really glad that this type of thing is frowned upon today!!! Anyone who subjects innocent animals to torture for the enjoyment of others is sick.
