Il Facchino (The Porter; le porteur) is one of the five 'talking statues' (statua parlante; statue parlante; sprechenden Statuen) of Rome.The statue was created in around 1580; to a design by Jacopo del Conte for the Corporazione degli Aquaroli . It depicts a man wearing a cap and a sleeved shirt; carrying a barrel. Somewhat incongruously; water spouts from the centre of the barrel; creating a fountain.It is situated on the Via Lata. - The talking statues of Rome provided an outlet for a form of anonymous political expression in Rome. Criticisms in the form of poems or witticisms were posted on well-known statues in Rome; as an early instance of bulletin board. It began in the 16th century and continues to the present day. Rome; Italy. 2021.
