È un'imponente testimonianza della romanizzazione della Valle d'Aosta. Incerta la sua datazione: per alcuni sarebbe stato costruito verso il 120 a.C., per altri nel 25 a.C. L'edificazione del ponte oggi esistente potrebbe ricadere nel periodo di Augusto, che dopo l'annessione della città di Aosta nel 25 a.C. e la sua rifondazione come colonia romana di Augusta Praetoria fece rinnovare da cima a fondo il sistema stradale locale. Le fondamenta di pietre lavorate, che si distinguono chiaramente sul rivestimento soprastante di pietre di cava, hanno dato adito all'ipotesi che una precedente costruzione con una campata di grandezza simile potrebbe essere stata edificata già nel 141 o 120 a.C. durante la costruzione della prima strada militare nella valle, ma a causa della tecnica cementizia non ancora matura non aveva avuto lunga durata. La leggenda La fantasia popolare ha attribuito la costruzione del ponte al diavolo. La leggenda narra che San Martino, vescovo di Tours, dovendo ritornare dall'Italia nella sua diocesi, si trovò bloccato dal torrente Lys, che con la sua piena aveva travolto l'unica passerella. Il diavolo gli propose di risolvere il problema costruendo, in una sola notte, un solido ponte, ma pretese in cambio l'anima del primo che avrebbe attraversato il ponte. Il santo accettò, ma la mattina dopo, lanciando un pezzo di pane all'altra estremità del ponte, fece sì che il primo ad attraversarlo fosse un cagnolino affamato. Il diavolo, furente, scomparve nel Lys tra lampi e zaffate di zolfo, ed alla popolazione rimase il ponte. La leggenda costituisce tuttora uno dei temi fondamentali del carnevale di Pont-Saint-Martin, che si conclude proprio con il rogo del diavolo sotto il ponte romano. Critiche e commenti sempre super graditi. GRAZIE.

Taddeo you're right there was an error the aperture was 5.6, do not know how it happened that 2.7. I checked now in Bridge.
Thank you, friends of the presence and the wonderful comments that never fail to make my galleries.
A dear greeting
Annamaria :-P :-P :-P

Joeb and Fiorenzo, thank you for the pleasant visit and for the compliments. Hangs a bit 'on the left, I will correct, I'm sorry now getting it because I would lose your messages. Verissimo Fiorenzo, the bridge is ennessima testimony of the Roman presence, although in Aosta these signs are more obvious, so much so that they call it the "Rome of the Alps".
To you, friends, a dear greeting
Annamaria :-P :-P

The idea is there.
as mentioned by friends, there are some composition and exposure errors that affect vision (in my opinion). All this probably difficult to recover in post production (and I think the burnt white).
say that perhaps you now have a better idea to go back and let us enjoy this beautiful place.
Hello Annamaria ;-)

Francoia, thank you, unfortunately it was one of the happiest day not to take pictures and I with post production are very weak ... I have a lot to learn. I go back often in Val d'Aosta, I'll just make the picture. Promised.

Nogberto, it is true I ran my hand. Thanks for the advice that I will keep in high regard.

Stephen, thanks for visiting.

excellent composition, and this b / w effect that gives the image a pencil effect, makes it very poetic and pleasant.

Annamaria nice shot, quoto Massimo Schiavi analysis. If this way of interpreting your photography in BN who wants a tory "Your trademark" should, in my judgment, review a little your PP as I made you this. Look this author could draw interesting ideas without, in my opinion, unnecessarily overdo. IMHO
Here is the link of the author and the photos I told you about
rogermrichards.photoshelter.com/index#!/index/G0000P4prP9DCcdA/I0000Rq
You could also take spounto from the work of Luca Piola and Beniamino Terraneo, advice I have already suggested to another person.
A greeting

Thanks for the attention.
Good Sunday, hello

Beautiful framing Annamaria, happy choosing bn, maybe in a bit overexposed, but otherwise 10/10. Good
Ps. Congratulations to the caption where states the history of this magnificent artifact. Not all embellish their shot with a description of what they have posted. Thanks, photography is also this culture.
