Fontane di Piazza Farnese, Twin fountains in Piazza Farnese, Rome, Italy.
Two identical decorative fountains stand in Piazza Farnese, displaying large granite basins with water flowing through four carved masks into the lower pools.
The granite basins originate from the ancient Baths of Caracalla and were transformed into fountains by architect Girolamo Rainaldi in 1626.
Each fountain features the Farnese family lily emblem at its summit, representing the influence of this noble family in Renaissance Rome.
The fountains remain accessible throughout the year and provide a central meeting point near numerous restaurants in the Regola district.
The northern fountain maintains its original features, while the southern one underwent multiple restorations, creating subtle differences between the twin structures.
