The movie had to be Roman Holiday. Not long after meeting my (now) husband Richard we took a holiday in Rome and it was wonderful and romantic and it is where we fell in love. He had never seen the film so we bought it when we got home and it is now one of our favourites. The background photo is the Trevi Fountain and the small round one is the La Bocca della Verita both were taken by Richard, both places feature heavily in the film and yes we put our hands in the La Bocca della Verita and told it a secret and it did not bite our hands off as we did not lie and we threw coins in the Trevi and vowed we would return. This is really then assemblage but it was a great excuse to look back through our pictures from that holiday.

Moira, this is wonderful. Your story about your romance makes this gothic arch art so meaningful. It is a beautiful illustration of Roman Holiday.
I just guessed that Roman Holiday was your favourite movie as soon as I saw your arch...confirmed in your blog entry! How thrilling that the movie has personal meaning for you too! I love the image that you chose for the arch...such a sense of fun and romance.
Love the way the fountain fits so well in the arch shape, Moira what a lovely design, would love to visit Rome!

a beautiful arch and a great movie
This is one of my favorite movies too. Was there ever a more more gorgeous man than Gregory Peck? He was my first love. Your arch is a great interpretation of the film. It captures the fun and romance perfectly. BTW every time I watch the movie I hope the ending will turn our differently!
Brilliant arch
