About the artwork
This magnificent architectural photograph was taken with the NIKON D70 on 26 August 2007 in the early evening hours
(Lens: Nikkor 18.0-50.0 mm f/2.8).
The Trevi Fountain (Italian: Fontana di Trevi) is a monumental fountain in the Piazza di Trevi in front of the Palazzo Poli in Rome. It was created in the years 1732-1762 by the architect Nicola Salvi for Pope Clement XII and is considered a Baroque masterpiece.
The Trevi Fountain is the largest fountain in Rome and one of the most famous fountains in the world. It is supplied with 80 million litres of water per day by the Acqua Vergine.
The Trevi Fountain consists of a palace façade with a triumphal arch in front of it. In front of it, sea figures cavort on a rocky landscape, over which the water pours into a large, shallow basin. The material used is travertine from Tivoli and marble from Carrara. At 26 metres high and around 49 metres wide, it is the largest fountain in Rome and one of the most famous fountains in the world.
Stylistically, it can be categorised as late Baroque, in the transition to early Classicism.
In Fellini's La Dolce Vita (The Sweet Life) from 1960, Anita Ekberg and Marcello Mastroianni take a night-time dip in the fountain. This is one of the most famous scenes in film history and has contributed significantly to the popularity of the fountain among tourists.
