Rome, Trevi Fountain; Roma, Fontana di Trevi

            My favourite fountain! It's really amazing!! I so love the games of water with these wonderful white marble statues.

The Trevi Fountain is the largest and most ambitious of the Baroque fountains of Rome. According to the current political division of the center of Rome, it is placed in the rione Trevi. The center niche or exedra framing Neptune has free-standing columns for maximal light-and-shade. In the niches flanking Neptune, Abundance spills water from her urn and Salubrity holds a cup from which a snake drinks.

La Fontana di Trevi è la più grande ed una fra le più note fontane di Roma. La settecentesca fontana, progettata da Nicolò Salvi, è un felice e riuscito connubio di classicismo e barocco. Il tema della scultura è il mare. La scenografia è dominata da un cocchio, a forma di conchiglia sul quale è adagiata la grande statua di Oceano, affiancata nelle nicchie laterali dalle statue della Salubrità e dell'Abbondanza.
