Description "Il Vittoriano" is a monument built to honour Victor Emmanuel, the first king of a unified Italy, located in Rome, Italy. It occupies a site between the Piazza Venezia and the Capitoline Hill. The monument was designed by Giuseppe Sacconi in 1885; sculpture for it was parceled out to established sculptors all over Italy, such as Leonardo Bistolfi and Angelo Zanelli.

haha, yes you are right! But than in a slightly different angle, which make them quite unique in their own way. I really love Rome, because I love classical art and history and for that this city is a paradise!

They are each very unique indeed. It's amazing to me that there are so many ways to shoot these beautiful monuments of Rome and each way is so uniquely attractive.
