"The Colosseo Quadrato or 'Square Colosseum', as Romans call it, or the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana (Palace of Italian Civilisation), is an emblem of the Rationalist architecture of the Fascist period. Its geometric lines and symmetrical arches create a play of light and shadow that makes every shot incredibly fascinating. The building, inaugurated in 1940, represents a dialogue between past and future, a nod to the Colosseum and a reference to Futurism." - The MICHELIN Guide
