[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 4686048, member: 80783"]The largest Basilica on the Forum Romanum was started by Julius Caesar in 54 BC and inaugurated by Augustus in 12 BC. Not much of it is left today so there are various interpretations about the exact layout of it's second floor gallery and the decoration for example. Anyway, here is my interpretation in 1:75 scale (including the seven columns added by Diocletian around 300 AD). I hope you like it and look forward to your assessment!
