Borgo (rione Of Rome)
Borgo (sometimes called also I Borghi) is the 14th (administrative district) of Rome, Italy. It is identified by the initials R. XIV and is included within Municipio I. Its coat of arms shows a lion (after the name " Leonine City", which was also given to the district), lying in front of three mounts and a star. These – together with a lion rampant – are also part of the coat of arms of Pope Sixtus V, who annexed Borgo as the 14th rione of Rome. History Roman Age: ''Ager Vaticanus'' During the Roman age, the Borgo district was part of the 14th Regio (Regio XIV Transtiberim) and was named '' Ager Vaticanus'', after the auguries (''vaticinii'') performed there by the Etruscan '' Augurs''. Since it lay outside the Pomerium (the religious city border inside which burial was forbidden) and was plagued by malaria, this territory was used as a burial place. Some tombs reached notable proportions, including the '' Terebinthus Neronis'', which was a round tomb surmounted by a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Antoniazzo Romano
Antonio di Benedetto Aquilo degli Aquili (c. 1430 – c. 1510), known as Antoniazzo Romano, was an Italian Early Renaissance painter, the leading figure of the Roman school during the latter part of the 15th century. He "made a speciality of repainting or interpreting older images, or generating new cult images with an archaic flavor", in particular by very often using the gold ground style, which was unusual by this period. Biography Antoniazzo was born in the Colonna ''rione'' of Rome. His father was a painter. Antoniazzo was fined as a young man for brawling in the streets. He was influenced at first by the decorative manner of Benozzo Gozzoli and Beato Angelico, as well as by the local painters of Lazio. His first recorded work is from 1461, a replica (untraced) of the miraculous ''Virgin and Child of St. Luke'' in the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore of Rome, for the seignior of Pesaro, Alessandro Sforza. From 1464 he worked for the papal court, producing at first ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
San Michele Arcangelo Ai Corridori Di Borgo
San Michele Arcangelo ai Corridori di Borgo was a church in Rome dedicated to St. Michael, the Archangel, important for historical and artistic reasons. The church, traditionally linked to the legend of the appearance of St. Michael above Castel Sant'Angelo and seat of the confraternity of the same name, was founded in the Middle Ages and rebuilt in 1564. The 16th century church, a small hall building, was the work of the Florentine mannerist architect Tiberio Calcagni, and had a side chapel on the left side of the first bay. The building was decorated with frescoes and paintings from the mannerist period, and housed a fresco from the 15th century, the Nursing Madonna, attributed to Antoniazzo Romano, accidentally found in 1825 in the courtyard wall. The church was demolished in 1939 to allow for the enlargement of two roads: ''Borgo Sant'Angelo'' and ''Via della Traspontina'', as part of a project to open ''Via della Conciliazione''.
