Termini Stop Baths of Diocletian Built at the end of the third century by the Emperor Diocletian and his brother Maximian, the baths were the largest in Rome and could hold more than 3,000 people. The Romans, apart from the wealthy ones, did not have running water in their homes, thus by necessity they had to use the thermal baths. The baths provided facilities for group and individual bathing, saunas, gyms, massage rooms, and libraries. All around the complex, then as now, were porticoes. Entrance was free and both sexes were allowed, but, except for a few Emperors who permitted common use, men and women had to take their baths at different scheduled times.

Via Nazionale Stop Piazza del Quirinale Piazza del Quirinale is located on the highest of Rome's seven hills. This hill, in ancient times, was the site of numerous sanctuaries. The square is closed by the majestic Quirinal Palace, on which famous architects worked, including Lorenzo Bernini. Begun in 1573 under Pope Gregory XIII, who wanted to make it the Pope's summer palace, and finished two centuries later under Clement XII, the building became from 1870 the residence of the king of Italy, and today is the official residence of the President of the Italian Republic. In the centre of the square stands the obelisk from the Mausoleo di Augusto, a fountain from the Roman Forum, and the famous statues of the "Dioscuri", Roman copies of Greek originals which represent the two inseparable twins Castor and Pollux, protectors of horsemen. In the square is held a choreographic ceremony for the changing of the guards, which attracts crowds of tourists.

Thus, various emperors created new Forums along this street, whose name means "The Way of the Imperial Forums". During the Middle Ages the Forums were abandoned and over time buried and interred. The area was systematically excavated only in 1923. Address: Via dei Fori Imperiali 6 © Copyright Trambus Open S.p.A. All rights reserved.

Colosseo Stop Colosseum Its original name is Flavian Amphitheatre, in honour of the Emperors of the Flavian dynasty who ordered its construction. It was called Colosseum because nearby there was a colossal statue of Nero in golden bronze, 35 metres high, which was moved here from the Domus Aurea during the reign of Adrian. Its construction begun under the Emperor Vespasian in 72 A.D. and finished under Titus eight years later. Its inauguration lasted 100 days, during which 5,000 animals and numerous gladiators were slain. In fact, the amphitheatre was used for fights between gladiators and chasing of ferocious beasts as well as for naval battles. The Colosseum contained about 70,000 spectators, who were protected from the sun by canvas "sails," manoeuvred by a team of sailors. The interior was subdivided into three overlapping sectors of steps, each one destined to a different social class category: the lower section, around the arena, was for the emperor, senators, magistrates, and vestals; the first tier was for the horsemen, the second for citizens, and the third one for the lowest classes. Since the Middle Ages, the Colosseum was abandoned and used as a quarry for travertine to build new palaces, according to a custom much in vogue at that time. At the end of the 16th century Sixtus V proposed to transform the amphitheatre into a wool factory or to divide it in two parts to create a street connecting the Lateran and the Vatican. It has not been historically proven that Christians were martyred here, but the Colosseum was consecrated as a sacred site in the middle of the 17th century, and the Popes began its restoration. Address: Piazza del Colosseo Timetables: Everyday from 9.00 am until one hour before sunset. Tariffs: Full price: € 8,00; Reduced: € 6,00 for European Union citizens between 18 and 25 years old. Free entrance for European Union citizens under 18 and over 65 years old. Useful information: From 2/7/04 until 9/1/05 the price is two euro more to visit the exhibition "La città moderna e il suo passato". 11 © Copyright Trambus Open S.p.A. All rights reserved.

This finely engraved and lavishly decorative view of Rome takes in all of the 'Eternal City', as it was encompassed by its ancient Aurelian Walls, built during the 2nd Century A.D., on the banks of the River Tiber. Numerous monuments and sites, all of which are still present today, can be seem on the view, including the Coliseum, the Pantheon, the Piazza del Popolo, the Church of San Giovanni Laterno, the Baths of Diocletian, and the Vatican, which is dominated by the Dome of St. Peter's Basilica and the Castel Sant'Angelo. Most notable is the great oval Colonnade that lines the square in front of St. Peter's, which had only been completed in 1666 by the Gianlorenzo Bernini, one of the towering figures of the Baroque Era. The quality of the engraving is exceptionally high, as is the composition of the view, which grants the observer a panoptic view over Rome, while the specific details of the cityscape remain sharply distinguishable.

    The Influence of International Town Planning Ideas Upon Marcello Piacentini’S Work

    Bauhaus-Institut für Geschichte und Theorie der Architektur und Planung Symposium ‟Urban Design and Dictatorship in the 20th century: Italy, Portugal, the Soviet Union, Spain and Germany. History and Historiography” Weimar, November 21-22, 2013 ___________________________________________________________________________ About the Internationality of Urbanism: The Influence of International Town Planning Ideas upon Marcello Piacentini’s Work Christine Beese Kunsthistorisches Institut – Freie Universität Berlin – Germany [email protected] Last version: May 13, 2015 Keywords: town planning, civic design, civic center, city extension, regional planning, Italy, Rome, Fascism, Marcello Piacentini, Gustavo Giovannoni, school of architecture, Joseph Stübben Abstract Architecture and urbanism generated under dictatorship are often understood as a materialization of political thoughts. We are therefore tempted to believe the nationalist rhetoric that accompanied many urban projects of the early 20th century. Taking the example of Marcello Piacentini, the most successful architect in Italy during the dictatorship of Mussolini, the article traces how international trends in civic design and urban planning affected the architect’s work. The article aims to show that architectural and urban form cannot be taken as genuinely national – whether or not it may be called “Italian” or “fascist”. Concepts and forms underwent a versatile transformation in history, were adapted to specific needs and changed their meaning according to the new context. The challenge is to understand why certain forms are chosen in a specific case and how they were used to create displays that offer new modes of interpretation. The birth of town planning as an architectural discipline When Marcello Piacentini (1881-1960) began his career at the turn of the 20th century, urban design as a profession for architects was a very young discipline.

    The Porta Del Popolo, Rome Pen and Brown Ink on Buff Paper

    Muirhead BONE (Glasgow 1876 - Oxford 1953) The Porta del Popolo, Rome Pen and brown ink on buff paper. Signed Muirhead Bone at the lower right. 222 x 170 mm. (8 3/4 x 6 5/8 in.) One of the first trips that Muirhead Bone made outside Britain was a long stay of two years - from October 1910 to October 1912 – in central and northern Italy, accompanied by his wife Gertrude and their children. After spending several weeks in Florence, the Bone family settled in Rome in the early months of 1911, and from October 1911 lived in a flat overlooking the Piazza del Popolo. During his time in Italy Bone produced thirty-two copper plates and numerous fine drawings, several of which were sent from Italy to London and Glasgow to be sold by his dealers. A number of Bone’s drawings of Italy were exhibited at the Colnaghi and Obach gallery in London in 1914, to very positive reviews. The present sheet depicts part of the outer façade of the city gate known as the Porta del Popolo, a section part of the Aurelian Walls encircling the city of Rome. The gate was the main entrance to Rome from the Via Flaminia and the north, and was used by most travellers arriving into the city for the first time. Built by Pope Sixtus IV for the Jubilee year of 1475, the Porta del Popolo was remodelled in the 16th century under Pope Pius IV. The Pope had asked Michelangelo to design the new outer façade of the Porta, but the elderly artist passed the commission on to the architect Nanni di Baccio Bigio, who completed the work between 1562 and 1565.

Burton’s words invoke the gallery of maps Pope Alexander VII assembled in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome in 1665 and animate Sutton Nicholls’s ink-and-wash drawing of Samuel Pepys’s library in London in 1693 (Fig. 1).2 There, in a room lined with bookcases and portraits, a map stands out, mounted on canvas and sus- pended from two cords; it is Giovanni Battista Falda’s view of Rome, published in 1676.
