Dominating the small cobbled avenue in which it sits, this fountain is an outrageous example of over-the-top Baroque sculpture, and is immediately recognisable from its appearance in classic films such as ' Three Coins in a Fountain' and Federico Fellini's screen masterpiece, ' La Dolce Vita'. The most iconic example is Salvi's Trevi Fountain. St Peter's Square and Basilica are Renaissance masterpieces while gloriously ornate fountains and statues greet you at every twist and turn of the city's streets. Classically imposing are the Colosseum and the Roman Forum while the austere exterior of the Pantheon belies its stunning interior. The beauties of Rome sprawl across its landscape and are a compelling blend of the ancient with the Renaissance.
