The Monument to Giuseppe Gioachino Belli is a marble memorial dedicated to the 19th-century poet who wrote mainly in Romanesco, the Roman dialect.

The work was funded by public donations, an effort started in 1910 by Domenico Gnoli, Ferdinando Martini and Leone Caetani.

A competition selected the design by Michele Tripisciano in 1911, and the monument was inaugurated in May 1913, for the 50th anniversary of the poet's death.

The well-dressed poet with a top hat, a walking stick, and his right hand loiters on a reconstruction of Ponte Fabricio banister, recognizable by the presence of a typical four-faced hermes.

Below is a low square plinth, with a relief with symbols of Rome: an allegorical figure of the river Tiber lying, the Capitoline Wolf feeding the twins; and on the rear, Romans gathered around "Pasquino".
