Rome, Italy. Detail of the campanile a vela of Palazzo di Montecitorio, by Carlo Fontana. Works for the building begun in 1653, on a design by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, modified by Carlo Fontana who added the bell tower in 1694 under pope Innocent XII Pignatelli when it became the building of the State Tribunal ("curia innocenziana"). Since 1871 it is home of the lower house of the Parliament (Camera dei Deputati - Chamber of Deputies).
