Elements that we know for sure were created specifically for this monument are the horizontal friezes up at the top and above the side arches. This photograph shows the west facade with friezes depicting victory processions on the left and Constantine addressing his troops after the battle and participating in a pagan sacrifice on the right. The east facade shows other scenes from Constantine?s life: giving gifts to Rome, accepting the surrender of barbarians, him addressing his troops, and finally his troops going off to battle.
