Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Giovanni Fontana, with the help of engineers Giovanni Vasanzio and Flaminio Ponzio, was commissioned by Pope Sixtus V to design this fountain as part of a larger system of hydraulics utilizing the ancient aqueducts on the Janiculum Hill built by Trajan (r. 98-177 CE). It was originally located on the opposite side of the Tiber from where it is today as part of the Collegio Ecclesiastico, a seminary attached to the larger hospice complex on Via Giulia. The fountain was dismantled and relocated at its present location in 1898.
Français : Giovanni Fontana, avec l'aide des ingénieurs Giovanni Vasanzio et Flaminio Ponzio, fut chargé par le pape Sixte V de concevoir cette fontaine dans le cadre d'un système hydraulique plus vaste utilisant les anciens aqueducs du Janicule construits par Trajan (r. 98-177 apr. J.-C.). Elle était à l'origine située sur la rive opposée du Tibre par rapport à son emplacement actuel, dans le cadre du Collegio Ecclesiastico, un séminaire rattaché au plus grand complexe d'hospices de la Via Giulia. La fontaine fut démontée et déplacée à son emplacement actuel en 1898.
Italiano: Giovanni Fontana, con l'aiuto degli ingegneri Giovanni Vasanzio e Flaminio Ponzio, fu incaricato da Papa Sisto V di progettare questa fontana come parte di un più ampio sistema idraulico che utilizzava gli antichi acquedotti sul Gianicolo costruiti da Traiano (r. 98-177 d.C.). In origine era situata sul lato opposto del Tevere rispetto a dove si trova oggi, come parte del Collegio Ecclesiastico, un seminario annesso al più grande complesso di ospizi in Via Giulia. La fontana fu smantellata e ricollocata nella sua posizione attuale nel 1898.
Deutsch: Giovanni Fontana wurde von Papst Sixtus V. mit Hilfe der Ingenieure Giovanni Vasanzio und Flaminio Ponzio beauftragt, diesen Brunnen als Teil eines größeren hydraulischen Systems zu entwerfen, das die antiken Aquädukte auf dem von Trajan (reg. 98-177 n. Chr.) erbauten Gianicolo-Hügel nutzte. Ursprünglich befand er sich auf der dem heutigen Standort gegenüberliegenden Seite des Tiber als Teil des Collegio Ecclesiastico, eines Seminars, das dem größeren Hospizkomplex an der Via Giulia angeschlossen war. Der Brunnen wurde 1898 abgebaut und an seinen heutigen Standort verlegt.
