LA bowl sent on April 07, 2016 (10:08) by Annamaria Pertosa. 53 comments, 1729 views.

at 24mm, 1/50 f/11.0, ISO 100, hand held. Roma, Italy.

Questa fontana ha una piccola storia da raccontare. Essa, su disegno di Giacomo Della Porta, risale alla fine del 1500, e originariamente non era collocata qui, ma poco distante, a piazza Campo de' Fiori. Più precisamente, era collocata dove ora si trova la famosa statua di Giordano Bruno. La nostra "Terrina" nel 1600 si presentava abbastanza diversa...La grande vasca, ancora collocata sotto il livello stradale a causa della scarsa pressione dell'acqua vergine si presentava senza il "coperchio" che oggi la caratterizza; inoltre per un pò di tempo fu anche decorata con dei bei delfini di bronzo, delfini che nel progetto originario dovevano finire nella parte alta della fontana delle tartarughe (al posto delle attuali tartarughe del Bernini). Il popolo a Campo de' Fiori usava spesso la nostra fontana per tenere "al fresco" la frutta, la verdura, i fiori e le varie mercanzie dei banchi del mercato, o in alternativa come ricettacolo di rifiuti, e il risultato era davvero poco edificante. Di questo si accorse papa Gregorio XV, che fece "tappare" l'elegante fontana con l'attuale poco gradevole coperchio. Fu allora che il popolo romano, che sappiamo ormai essere sempre pronto alle battute sarcastiche, prese ironicamente a chiamare la fontana "la terrina", cioè ..."la zuppiera"! Critiche e commenti sempre super graditi. GRAZIE.

----------------------------------------
The caption of any photo for me is essential, because it enriches. I often find great photos of cities or villages and more without a minimum of information ... but you know, everyone wants to rule like. Ezio, the controversial article, I share your thought.
I thank you for the wonderful comments and faithful presence.
Have a nice day bye
Annamaria :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P

Annamaria, just a nice shot in a beautiful B & N!
Interesting caption, and, by the way, I fully share your "philosophy" about this tool that, in addition to providing interesting news, often helps to fully understand the meaning of a shot.
Good, congratulations!

I fully agree with Arvina, though I would have a minor criticism, it seems a little leaning to the right. It also seems strange that he has not noticed anyone before me.
Many greetings, in early :-)
