Palazzo Sciarra Colonna di Carbognano, Renaissance palace in Colonna district, Italy.

The palace exhibits a monumental entrance with an ashlar arch and two fluted columns supporting a first-floor balcony on Via del Corso.

The structure emerged from the fusion of two separate buildings in 1610, under the direction of architect Flaminio Ponzio for the Colonna di Sciarra family.

The interior walls display frescoes by Giuseppe Cellini depicting women's virtues through daily life scenes in the Art Nouveau style.

The building houses the Rome Foundation headquarters at Via del Corso 239, near the Trevi Fountain in central Rome.

The entrance portal ranks among the four wonders of Rome due to its construction from a single piece of sculpted marble.
