A photograph showing the sole remaining pier at the angle of Palazzo Rusticucci-Accoramboni, a building (now destroyed) designed by Domenico Fontana and Carlo Maderno in the Borgo rione (district), in Rome.
This Palazzo used to be very close to the so-called House of Raphael. This was Palazzo Caprini, a building, now destroyed, erected on Bramante's project between 1501 and 1510 for the apostolic protonotary Adriano Caprini. This building was also known as "Palazzo di Raffaello", as in 1517 it was acquired by Raphael, who spent the rest of his life there. The Palazzo was in the Borgo rione (district) in Rome and since the end of the 16th century it became the main core of Palazzo dei Convertendi, which was demolished in 1938 for the opening of Via della Conciliazione.
