This a wonderful site for images of the Trevi Fountain in Rome. The
first part is text, initially in English, followed by Italian. The
images follow.
Click on each "thumbnail" image for a huge image. Click your "back"
button to get back to the thumbnails.
There are a number of pages of thumbnails, with close up and distant
views from all directions and points of view.
I don't know who would care to undertake even a plaster copy of this,
but it sure is a wonderful work of art. My oh my!

PS: There's a sub site here too re: ceramics of the 19th century, The
XIX Century Popular Ceramics of Veneto (Venice?). They are pictorial
plates. Animal, flower, human, religious, zodiac, Calendar art are
depicted. http://www.thais.it/arti_minori/ceramica/default_uk.htm
by the way, the English home page for the entire site is:
