As it stood in AD 81
The shape it held in its prime.
A single‑bayed triumphal arch of pale stone standing tall above the Via Sacra, roughly 15.4 m high, with an arched central passage framed by paired engaged Corinthian columns. The soffit of the archway is deeply coffered and the interior passage contains high‑relief panels. An attic above the arch bears a Roman square‑capital dedicatory inscription. The surface is warm ivory stone, with sculpted figural reliefs in the archway and a clear delineation between original stone and later travertine repairs.
