The ancient Roman god Janus (Ianus Quadrifons), was sometimes depicted with four faces, and there are Janus-related structures mentioned in historic descriptions of ancient Rome. Janus is the God of gates, transitions, duality, doorways, passages. He is usually showing with two faces since he looks to the future and to the past. here The artist created an enchanting harmony by well-defined hatching to demonstrates the historical arch.
