Triumphal arches mediate power and memory. Paris’s Arc converses across centuries.
Snapshot
| Monument | City | Type | Signature | Ritual |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arch of Titus | Rome | Triumphal | Relief narrative | Occasional |
| Brandenburg Gate | Berlin | Gate | Quadriga, civic threshold | National events |
| Wellington Arch | London | Triumphal | Victory statue; island | Ceremonial |
| Arch of Constantine | Rome | Triumphal | Spolia collage | Historical |
| Arc de Triomphe | Paris | Triumphal | Monumental mass | Daily flame |
What Paris Adds
- Scale & clarity: Near‑square mass; legible from afar.
- Living ritual: Daily flame — stone as active memorial.
