  • Detail of mosaic in the House of Neptune, Italica, Seville, Spain, pictured on December 28, 2006, in the morning. The mosaic depicts a hunter with a large wading bird. Italica was founded by Scipio Africanus in 206 BC as a centre for soldiers wounded in the Battle of Ilipa, a defeat for Carthage during the Punic Wars, and became a military outpost. The name signifies that the original settlers were from an Italian regiment. It was one of the first cities in Roman Hispania and was the birthplace of two Roman Emperors: Trajan (53-117 AD) and Hadrian (76-138 AD). The House of Neptune is named for its central mosiac showing the God of the Sea with his trident surrounded by sea creatures. The city declined after the fall of the Roman Empire.

  • Detail of Trevi Fountain, Rome, Italy, pictured on December 11, 2010 in the afternoon. The largest Baroque fountain in the world, it was designed 1732-62 by Nicola Salvi and Giuseppe Pannini.
