Quartiere Coppedè is a bizarre area in Rome

Quartiere Coppedè is an unexpected and bizarre area in Rome, nestled within the Trieste district in the northern part of the city. The fantastical mix of Ancient Greek, Roman Barroque, Mannerist, Medieval, and, overall, Art Nouveau mishmash was brought to life by architect Coppedè in 1919 (from whom the quarter itself takes its current name). Coppedè worked on the quarter from the late 1910s until his death in 1927.
