130
This view highlights the architectural balance of Santa Maria dei Miracoli (left, 1675) and Santa Maria in Montesanto (right, 1679), designed under Carlo Rainaldi’s supervision. The Flaminio Obelisk, from Heliopolis (13th c. BC), was erected here in 1589 by Pope Sixtus V as a Christian symbol in the urban plan of Rome.
