Two of the four cantos of Palermo

Two of the four corners of Palermo.
One of the most famous squares in Palermo is this one, even if it is actually a crossroads. Exactly between via Maqueda and via Vittorio Emanuele.
The four identical buildings differ only in the statues on the facade and I believe also in the fountains at ground level.

The Quattro Canti proper are the four decorative apparatuses that delimit the space of the intersection. Made between 1609 and 1620 and surmounted by the royal, senatorial and viceregal coats of arms (in white marble), the four façades present an articulation on multiple levels, with a decoration based on the use of architectural orders and figurative insertions that, from bottom to top, follow one another according to a principle of ascension from the world of nature to that of the sky.
