Apartment buildings, Piazza Augusto Emperatore, Rome, Italy

Relief of an angel on the apartment buildings on the Piazza Augusto Emperatore, Rome, Italy, built in Fascist style with antique inspiration. Fascist architecture developed in the late 1920s and 1930s, as a modernist style in times of nationalism and totalitarianism under Benito Mussolini. It is characterised by large, square, symmetrical buildings with little or no decoration, often inspired by ancient Rome and designed to convey strength and power. Picture by Manuel Cohen
