Rome
Detail of Trevi Fountain, Rome, Italy, pictured on December 11, 2010 in the afternoon. The largest Baroque fountain in the world, it was designed 1732-62 by Nicola Salvi and Giuseppe Pannini. At the junction of three roads (tre vie), it is also the terminal of the Ancient Roman Aqua Virgo aqueduct, restored in 1543 by Pope Nicholas V. This 1732 sculpture of Neptune by Pietro Bracci stands in the central niche, surrounded by a set piece on the theme of Taming the Waters. Picture by Manuel Cohen
