, 1/80 f/5.6, ISO 100, hand held. Roma, Italy.

La Fontana delle Palle di Cannone, situata in Via di Porta Castello, appena oltre i fornici aperti nel Passetto, è situata sotto un arco in travertino a tutto sesto, al centro del quale è raffigurato lo stemma del Comune di Roma, ed è costituita da un mascherone posto al centro di una piramide costituita da palle di pietra sovrapposte, chiaro riferimento alla vicina fortezza di Castel Sant Angelo, che versa l'acqua nella sottostante vaschetta-abbeveratoio per cavalli. La Fontana delle Palle di Cannone, dedicata al Rione Borgo, fu realizzata da Pietro Lombardi nel 1927, come le altre fontane tutte allusive, nelle decorazioni, agli stemmi dei rioni o alle attività dei luoghi, come la Fontana delle Anfore, la Fontana degli Artisti, la Fontana delle Tiare, la Fontana dei Libri, la Fontana della Pigna, la Fontana dei Monti, la Fontana della Botte e la Fontana del Timone.

The wonderful fountains of Rome from the most scenic to the most humble and discreet ones that tell the real life of ordinary people

They are quite documented on the net, but every now and then you discover several of which there are no traces on the net.
Hello and thanks for the pass.

A beautiful chromatically intriguing setting for this curious fountain in Rome, well photographed and well described.
Bravo and congratulations, Fabrizio.
