NOTES: This image is from an album of postcards of views of Rome, entitled 'Roma', probably dating from the late 1890s or early 1900s. The Palazzo Senatorio (seat of the Mayor of Rome) is 1592 by della Porta. The Palazzo Nuovo (on the left), which houses part of the Capitoline Museum, was built 1603-1654 by Girolamo Rainaldi and his son Carlo Rainaldi to Michelangelo's design of 1536. It is a mirror-image of the Palazzo dei Conservatori on the right, built 1564-1575 by Giacomo della Porta, also to Michelangelo's design.
