Il suo vero nome è PONTE MILVIO, a Roma detto mollo perchè con le piene del Tevere è il primo a finire a mollo (ad essere allagato). Ma siccome ha 2000 anni, non teme intemperie ne terremoti ne altro... Alcune note da Wikipedia La prima menzione del ponte risale al 207 a.C., in relazione al ritorno dalla battaglia del Metauro nel corso della seconda guerra punica. Il ponte doveva essere a quest'epoca ancora in legno e la sua costruzione deve essere attribuita ad un Molvius (appartenente alla gens Molvia, attestata dalle fonti). La torretta di Valadier Nel 110-109 a.C. il censore Marco Emilio Scauro ricostruì il ponte in muratura. Quattrocento anni dopo, nel 312, nelle campagne gravitanti verso il ponte, ebbe luogo la battaglia tra Costantino I e Massenzio nota come battaglia di Ponte Milvio o battaglia di Saxa Rubra; qui, secondo la leggenda, Costantino ebbe la visione della Croce recante la scritta: "In hoc signo vinces" che lo incoraggiò alla battaglia, e alla seguente integrazione dei cristiani nell'impero. Del ponte romano restano le tre arcate centrali. Il ponte era stato danneggiato dalle vicende belliche medioevali (vi era stata inoltre costruita sull'imboccatura settentrionale una fortificazione di forma triangolare nota come Tripizzone sulla base di una torre difensiva del III secolo) ed era conosciuto come ponte Mollo. Nel 1429 si ebbero i primi restauri sotto papa Martino V e i lavori furono affidati a Francesco di Gennazzano. Nel 1458 furono eliminate delle parti in legno e fu demolita la fortificazione medioevale. Ponte Milvio in una foto degli anni trenta attraversato dal tram Nel 1805, sotto papa Pio VII, altri lavori di restauro furono affidati a Giuseppe Valadier: questi ricostruì le arcate alle estremità, che erano state sostituite da ponti levatoi in legno, ed edificò all'imbocco settentrionale una torre in stile neoclassico. Installazione di Fabrizio Crisafulli sul ponte Milvio. Notte bianca 2003. Il ponte fu fatto saltare da Garibaldi nel 1849 per ostacolare l'avanzata delle truppe francesi e fu restaurato sotto papa Pio IX nel 1850. In questa occasione vi fu aggiunta una statua dell'Immacolata, opera dello scultore Domenico Pigiani, mentre già ne esisteva una di San Giovanni Nepomuceno. Un gruppo raffigurante il Battesimo di Gesù, collocato all'imbocco sud, è stato spostato nell'atrio del Museo di Roma a palazzo Braschi. Nel 1951 fu terminata la costruzione del ponte Flaminio che ne ha ridotto la funzione. Dal 1978 è chiuso al traffico veicolare.

Thanks Giuseppe, unfortunately this photo is not new although I enjoyed rework it today, has about 3 years.
This is to tell you that unfortunately the old lady was sold to make room for new purchases, and tell you I'm very sorry. With hindsight I would have preferred to keep it and maybe wait a little and then match it and not replace it at 5.
I confirm that it was and still is a great camera body.

PS your valves intrigue me and not a little, I own a small tube with which I still listen to the music, even from vinyl, of course.

Hello Patrick, I have three camera bodies Nikon D700 and D70 Fujifilm XT10 are too many to a non-professional, when you go out you never know what to bring and what to leave so if you have the 5:06 managed to cut off the excellent 1Ds you did well :-)

The valves are installed that you see on a small amplifier Little Dot headphones, unfortunately because of space I can not use the turntable and then the vinyl, lucky you that you can :-)

Greetings

Giuseppe

The beautiful views of the bridge around which now carries the nightlife of young Romans.
Bello also the sky and even the waves of the river. I prefer than the photos with long times that make it the silky water .... after a while 'you did oh !!! then you realize that they are all the same pictures.
Compliments
