Trevimage is the result of a very simple dream, that of bringing original art and design into people’s homes and businesses. What started off as a little humble spot a short stroll from the majestic Trevi fountain in Rome, has become the reference point for anything photography, graphic design and printing solutions in the historic center of the Eternal City. Additionally, because Rome is the perfect playground for a vacation photo shoot, we are thrilled to offer this service as well. What better way to remember your visit to Rome than with actual pictures of YOU, not just of monuments! Hope to see you at Trevimage on your next trip to Rome!

So glad we found this place! Lamented the lack of space in our luggage after seeing the larger pieces there, but stocked up on a few of the smaller images in a variety of sizes and styles. Different to the usual touristy souvenirs and a far better way to bring home something to remember our visit. I always look for art when I travel and this place definitely didn’t disappoint!

Closed on Thursdays! The famous painter Caravaggio (1573-1610) was commissioned to paint for this church, where in one of its chapels is his realistic naturalism in three scenes of the life of St. Matthew.

Bellissimo monumento della cristianità. Una chiesa ricca di storia ed arte, con la seconda cupola più alta di Roma. E' stato un tuffo nella bellezza! Beautiful experience in Sant' Andrea della Velle. Inside you can find an interesting audioguide that the volunteers give you for a visit this beautiful church. The audioguides are given to you gratis, and you can give them an offer to help!

This Baroque marvel is very hard to spot from the outside. Hidden in the porticoed courtyard of Palazzo della Sapienza, this extraordinary church is a masterpiece of baroque architecture. However, once you peak inside the entrance located very close to the Senate of Italy, in Corso Rinascimento, you are amazed by what you see. This Baroque church dates back to 1660, when Rome was at its height between the rivalry of the great master Bernini and his everlasting antagonist Borromini. Throughout the city, Borromini and Bernini’s work can be spotted quite close to one another. The church of Sant'Ivo alla Sapienza was built by Borromini from 1642 through 1660. Borromini redesigned the courtyard of Giacomo della Porta surrounding three sides with porticoes and the back with the magnificent curved facade and glowing white drum, dome, and lantern of Sant'Ivo church. The church rises in the little courtyard of the Palazzo della Sapienza (where it gets its name from), home of the antique university of Rome until 1935 and now home to the Italian state archive. Very particular are the original multifoiled dome and the daring clerestory with a spiral cusp. What makes Borromini’s church a marvel is definitely the ecstatic dome of the church. The swirling and dancing lantern on top of the dome might be the only little sign that helps passerby’s recognize or realize the existence of the church. The interior space is filled with natural light that surrounds you with its geometric play. Not to be missed the magnificent canvas by Pietro da Cortona, representing "Sant'Ivo" and other splendid frescoes. Located very close to Piazza Navona, Sant’Ivo is a hidden gem of Baroque history in Rome. Unfortunately, the church is very rarely open to be visited (only on Sunday morning). You should visit the church if you are in Rome. If it is not open, you can enjoy at least the exterior and the beautiful porticoed courtyard: the best part really is that facade and its unique dome lantern. It is well-worth popping into the courtyard just for a minute to marvel at it.

This church has a magnificent Caravaggio, the Madonna of the Pilgrims. Spend the Eur 1 to light the painting and enjoy. It is also within walking distance from San Luigi dei Francesi which is always mobbed, but not as well known as having a Caravaggio in situ.
