Pompeii in Your Back Yard

Think about Pompeii. Tourists worldwide take pleasure in the ruins of ancient cities. Back at home, their attitude towards ruins change.

It easily becomes a hysterical body, but this is because we want it this way. We take pleasure in decoding our feelings while looking at architecture.
