The photo shows the set design for Jerzy Kawalerowicz's movie "Quo vadis" based on a book by the Polish Nobel prize winner Henryk Sienkiewicz. Between the 20th century industrial buildings ancient Rome from Nero's time was built. A temple, Vinicius's house, Chilon's abode, and even a bridge crossing the Tiber River can be seen. The set design burned down towards the end of filming.
