Some of the Greek/Roman gods may need some pictures of statues.
Also, the
Romulus and Remus article does not have a picture of the so called hut of romulus, which was discovered on the Palatine hill.
For some reason, there are no pictures of the Temple of the
Tiburtine Sibyl, which is located in
Tivoli. There is also no article written about it.
I have one picture of the temple, but it is from afar and with the huge waterfall. Some closeups may be nice. You can take a bus to Tibur/Tivolli.
If you go, check out the temple,
Hadrian's Villa, and the
Villa d'Este. The Villa d'Este is a good place to take a date, it is jaw dropping.
There are also some frescos of the temple at the Villa, which do not exist anywhere on wikipedia. I'm not sure when the temple was built but it would have to be before the 4th century BC. The bus ride is 30-45min and you can pick up the bus at one of the last stops on the metrolina.
There is a colossal bust of Alexander the Great in a niche off Aurelian's Wall on the other side of the Villa Borghese (not at the piazza del popolo side). It is a bit larger or the same size as the
Constantine I head at the Capitoline. Most people don't know it exists. If you are only going for a short time, its probably not worth walking to get to it.
Santa Costanza does not have pictures of the two depictions of Jesus. The church is from the 4th century.
In fact, many of the Churches of Rome have few or no pictures at all.
Wikipedia also lacks a fresco by Raphael that is in the
Villa Farnesina. The Villa Farnesina is pretty cool; it has a bunch of other frescos of mythological gods and beasts.
It's south of the Vatican on the west side of the Tiber. The owner of the villa used to serve meals on golden plates and then throw them in the tiber to wow his guests. Of course he nets in there, but they didn't know that.
You can go see Rome's Botanical Gardens, which are near the Villa as well.
