Civitavecchia, Italy, September 9, 2013..Giant statue of a seaman kissing a woman, in Civitavecchia in Lazio. The statue is based on an iconic photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt of a sailor kissing a stranger in Times Square in New York at the end of World War 2. Civitavecchia, which means ancient town, was constructed by the Emperor Trajan at the beginning of the 2nd century. Today it is a major cruise and ferry port at 80 kilometers from Rome.
