One of the 4 then known rivers of the Bernini Fountain in Piazza Navona! Nice detail!

Thanks Alessandro
I'm the Rio de la Plata, as you well know, in the act of sheltering (as legend says) from the imminent collapse of the Church of St. Agnes in Agone del Borromini.
It's probably a boutade, but the story has come to us.

A boutade? Maybe yes or maybe not! Of course, the rivalry between Borromini and Bernini who were entrusted with the construction of this fountain immediately after the completion of S. Agnes in Agone was so heated that Borromini committed himself to death when he fell out of favor!

We say that the circumstances are not fully known, but Bernini's genius probably imposed himself on distance.
Borromini was not of good character, from what we read, he was rather of ill-tempered and rancorous;
probably the renewed favors towards Bernini, on the part of the Papacy, have caused an upheaval in his soul to the point of inducing him to suicide. However, Borromini remains a great architect and one of the leading exponents of Baroque.
