The fountain of the ââ¬ÅNavicellaââ¬Â in front of the church Santa Maria in Domnica in Rome, Italy. The appellation `alla Navicella` denotes `near the little ship`, and refers to the sculpture of a Roman ship that has been in this location since ancient times, possibly as a votive offering to an ancient temple, and which Pope Leo X turned into a fountain Fontana della Navicella in front of the church. |
