The Piazza d'espagna, so called from the palace of the Spanish embassy, is large, supplied by a fountain, and adorned with several hand some buildings, but particularly by the noble flight bf marble steps that ascends from it to the obelisk, church, and square, Della T rinila di' flfonti. From the balustrade that terminates this staircase above and borders the latter square, and indeed from the square itself which runs along the brow of the Pincian hill, there opens a delightful view of Rome, filonte Illario, and the Janiculum.
