- Cover photo description:
- The Fountain of the Four Rivers, Fontana dei quattro fiumi, is a fountain in the Piazza Navona in Rome, Italy. It was designed in 1651 by Gian Lorenzo Bernini for Pope Innocent X. The fountain faced the church of Sant`Agnese in Agone. The base of the fountain is a basin from the centre of which travertine rocks rise to support four river gods and above them, a copy of an Egyptian obelisk surmounted with the Pamphili family emblem. Represent four major rivers of the four continents through which papal authority had spread: the Nile representing Africa, the Danube representing Europe, the Ganges representing Asia, and the RÃo de la Plata representing the Americas.
