The Arch of Titus has provided the general model for many of the triumphal arches erected since the 16th century.

The Arch of Titus is a marble triumphal arch located on the Via Sacra just to the south-east of the Forum in Rome. It was constructed by the emperor Domitian shortly to commemorate the capture of Jerusalem in 70.
