1. Trevi-Pantheon Route Marker
The Trevi-Pantheon route makes up part of the narrow, winding path leading from Piazza Farnese to the slopes of the Quirinale, realised in the Middle Ages on Roman remains and interrupted by open spaces from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Between Piazza di Pietra and Piazza di Trevi the continvity of the path is disrupted when encountering Via del Corso. The reconstruction of the ancient Roman via Lata, 1.5 km long from north to south, Via del Corso was widened at the end of the Nineteenth Century, using massive blocks to thus complete the political and commercial centre of Rome as capital of the realm.
On crossing Via del Corso, the route resumes its course to emerge into the light-filled Piazza di Trevi. The final surprise enhanced by the reflection of the water from the fountain.
The low, hollowed-out basin extends over almost the whole area, whilst the colossal back-drop becomes an architectural monument, inhabited by rocks and statues. With, as its centrepiece, the niche from which the water flows, under the chario of amphitryon, producing an overall effect of astounding and wonderful surrealism.
Italian:
