Bologna: Piazza Maggiore: Photo Archive

About this photograph

The square brings together civic architecture, arcades and everyday movement. The broad view is useful for studying how the open space connects the surrounding façades. Keep the composition clear of an unrelated foreground obstruction and leave space for people crossing the square.

This page preserves a distinct Italy photo archive. The image is a record of one place and moment; appearance, access and facilities may have changed. Its source and reuse licence are linked in the caption. Keep those attribution terms if reusing the photograph.
