The original drawing is from an engraving that Charles Knight published in 1845; I coloured it, and spent an afternoon manipulating it when I was supposed to be concentrating on a meeting. Well, I did concentrate on the meeting too.
I wrote the text. The ruins in the picture are part of a Roman wall at Silchester in England.
Many empires have come and gone in history - is it really so important to be dominant for just a few hundred years?

The poem you wrote reminds me strongly of a passage of Nightwish"s song "Creek Mary's Blood":
"Our Spirit was here long before you, long before us, and long will it be after your pride brings you to your end".
