Roma Goddess fountain, Monumental fountain in Piazza del Popolo, Italy
The fountain features marble sculptures depicting the Goddess Roma with a helmet and spear, accompanied by representations of the Tiber and Aniene rivers.
Giuseppe Valadier and Giovanni Ceccarini constructed this fountain between 1822 and 1823 during the transformation of the northern entrance to Rome.
The sculptural group includes the she-wolf nursing Romulus and Remus at the base, representing the foundation story of Rome.
The fountain stands at the eastern semicircle of Piazza del Popolo, facing the Neptune Fountain across the square near public transportation connections.
A travertine shell valve beneath the central figures collects water from an upper basin, creating a continuous flow through multiple levels.
