THE WALLS OF ROMA PHOTOGRAPHY BOOK

A hardcover book titled "The Walls of Rome" by Paul J. Bashour lying on a wooden table.

The Walls of Roma paintings are now on view at Florence Osteria, a collaboration of art and cuisine.

📍 8265 Beverly Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA

Born from a walk through Rome, The Walls of Roma began with noticing the beauty in peeling plaster, faded frescoes, and weathered facades. These quiet, textured surfaces inspired a collection of over 200 photographs and original paintings that turn decay into eloquent art. Each work invites viewers to see the Eternal City anew where memory, time, and elegance converge.

Dance with Darkness No. 2, 2020

We perceive ourselves through emotions
that visually capture our identity
We transfer those emotions into an art form
that ultimately becomes who we are

Daring to aim higher
Willing to tackle any obstacles ahead
Reaching beyond our skies
To make a voice unknown, known

Perhaps there is more
More than just creating oneself
Unaware what’s beyond our stars

And yet we still move forward
Into a future, a future of endless possibilities
And everything we create, we just leave behind

-Paul Jacob Bashour
