A Critic in Pall Mall

Meer over het boek

Exploring the historical significance of a marble pyramid in Rome, the narrative reflects on its enduring presence amidst the city's ruins. The pyramid, often mistakenly believed to be the tomb of Remus, symbolizes the passage of time and the weight of history. Wilde's vivid imagery contrasts the ancient structure with the surrounding obelisks, evoking themes of mortality and the permanence of art. This piece captures the essence of Rome's layered past and invites readers to contemplate the stories embedded in its monuments.
