Po and Dora
In the
piazzetta CLN
(town center), these large marble fountains (1937) by Umberto Baglioni represent the two main rivers that flow through Turin: the Po and the Dora.

Those statues are really big!
May all Turin's rivers never flood.

These bring to mind the Art Deco works at Rockefeller Center in New York City. The frank physicality and the pure strength are wonderful.

Due staute maestose come lo sono i due fiumi che maestosi corrono per miglie e miglie a valle.
Buona Domenica Pietro!
