The Fontanone in Piazza della Caserma

The Fontanone dominates Piazza della Caserma in Trieste, with its octagonal structure and onion dome at the center of the scene. Around the fontana, carts and horse-drawn carriages, barrels and equipment can be seen, signs of the city's daily life. The facades of the buildings frame the square, while groups of passers-by animate it. A historical photo that restores the urban atmosphere of Trieste at the end of the nineteenth century‑early twentieth century.
