15 Public fountains in Rome served multiple purposes: first, they were highly needed sources of water for neighborhoods in the centuries prior to home plumbing. Second, they were monuments to the papal patrons. Most have animals and plants that further carry forth identification, and each carries a certain number of allegories and metaphors with it. While all of Rome s fountains are fed by underground fresh water springs therefore potable - there are many fountains built specifically for drinking.

39 1. The Trevi Fountain is a fountain in the Trevi district in Rome, Italy. Standing 26.3 metres (86 ft) high and metres (161.3 ft) wide, it is the largest Baroque fountain in the city and one of the most famous fountains in the world. (Wikipaedia) 2. In 1629 Pope Urban VIII, finding the earlier fountain insufficiently dramatic, asked Gian Lorenzo Bernini to sketch possible renovations, but the project was abandoned when the pope died. While the actual Bernini project was never constructed, there are many Bernini touches in the fountain as it exists today. (Wikipaedia) 3. Competitions had become the rage during the Baroque era to design buildings, fountains and even the Spanish Steps. In 1730 Pope Clement XII organized a contest in which Nicola Salvi initially lost to Alessandro Galilei but due to the outcry in Rome over the fact that a Florentine won - Salvi was awarded the commission anyway. (Wikipaedia) 4. The Trevi Fountain was finished in 1762 by Giuseppe Pannini. It remains one of the most historical cultural landmarks in Rome. (Wikipaedia)
