Plaza Victoria - Brescia - Italia / Victoria Square - Brescia - Italy
Entre 1929 y 1937, surge en el antiguo barrio medieval, la majestuosa plaza de la Victoria. El autor, Marcello Piacentini evoca en ella la planta a forma de ""L"" como aquella de la Plaza de San Marco de Venecia. En la plaza bresciana, la función del eje del campanario de san Marcos se sustituyó con la Torre del Ina, autárquicamente llamada ""edificio multipiano"" completamente recubierta de ladrillos y visible entre los edificios residenciales gracias a su altura que alcanza los 60 metros. Protagonista de la Plaza en el lado norte es el Palacio de Correos con un altísimo pronaos de mármol a bandas bicolores que protege las cristaleras de la pared trasera. Al este, enfrente de la torre, se alza la torre de la “Rivoluzione”, concebida como Arco de Triunfo y que conduce el paso del caminante hacia la “Piazza Paolo VI”: de hecho, crea un telescopio óptico en eje con el acceso a la nave menor susituada al sur del “Duomo Nuovo”. La torre estaba decorada con un bajorrelieve broncíneo del “Duce”a caballo, obra de Romolo Romanelli (perdido o derrumbado). Cerca de la torre de la Revolución, encontramos el Arengario (un púlpito para oradores) de Antonio Maraini con nueve bajorrelieves que representan escenas de la historia de la ciudad. En un ángulo de la plaza, se hallaba la Fuente de la Época Fascista, en ella se encontraba una gran estatua de un hombre desnudo de siete metros de altura, obra de Arturo Dazzi. Dicha fuente no existe actualmente. Destruído durante el bombardeo el bajorelieve de ladrillo que representaba la Anunciación, obra de Arturo Martini que decoraba el pórtico del torreón.

In the Plaza Bresciana, the function of the axis of the bell tower of San Marcos was replaced with the Torre del Ina, autarkically called a "" multipiano building "" completely covered with bricks and visible between residential buildings thanks to its height that reaches 60 meters. The main character of the Plaza on the north side is the Post Office Palace with a very high marble pronaos with bicolor bands that protects the windows of the rear wall. To the east, in front of the tower, rises the “Rivoluzione” tower, conceived as the Arc de Triomphe and which leads the walker's path towards the “Piazza Paolo VI”: in fact, it creates an optical telescope in axis with the access to the smaller nave located south of the "Duomo Nuovo". The tower was decorated with a bronze bas-relief of the “Duce” on horseback, the work of Romolo Romanelli (lost or collapsed). Near the Revolution tower, we find the Arengario (a pulpit for speakers) by Antonio Maraini with nine bas-reliefs representing scenes from the history of the city. In one corner of the square, there was the Fountain of the Fascist Age, in it was a large statue of a naked man seven meters high, the work of Arturo Dazzi. No such source currently exists. The brick bas-relief representing the Annunciation, a work by Arturo Martini that decorated the portico of the tower, was
