拍品專文

The Ponte Nomentano in antiquity was located outside of the Aurelian Wall and carried the Via Nomentano over the River Aniene. The lower part of the bridge tower dates from the time of Pope Adrian I (772-795), while the imposing castle-like structure was constructed during a general overhaul of the bridge by Pope Nicholas V (1447-1455) and served to protect this important northern approach to Rome.
