Tiber Flood Markers

It is always interesting to take note of the flood markers found around Rome.
This marker on the Hospital of Santo Spirito has a finger pointing to
how high the water got when the Tiber River flooded on Christmas Day in 1598.
My friend Damion is clowning around, as if he is under water!
