This broad square was laid out in the late 1800s and includes the exuberant "Fontana delle Naiadi". This grand fountain has many voluptuous bronze ladies wrestling happily with marine mosters. The nudes were not there when the Pope unveiled the fountain in 1870. The nude figures were added in 1901 which caused a scandal since they were modeled after the ample figures of two musical comedy stars of the day.
The square owes its shape to the curving colonnaded neoclassic buildings which trace the underlying form of the ancient baths. Of interest are the baroque style reliefs situated on the top corners of the buildings.
