More Information About Final Jeopardy!:
(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2026 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The Trevi Fountain was built in the 18th century in Rome; its design was the result of a competition organized by Pope Clement XII. Standing 86 feet in height and having a length of 161 feet, it was unfinished at the time of the death of Nicola Salvi, the original designer, in 1751—it had to be completed by four others, including Pietro Bracci, who added the statue of Oceanus in the central niche.
From a solvability perspective, I think that this is an excellent Final Jeopardy clue. One can notice the very Italian name of "Pietro Bracci", notice all of the references to water, and put that together with a landmark to name the most famous fountain in Italy—the Trevi Fountain. In fact, I would seriously consider using this clue as a prototypical example if I were to teach a writer how to write a Final Jeopardy clue worthy of the show.
