Picasso's Lady looks down her nose at faux Trevi

As part of this year's Fiera Italiana, a free-standing replica of Rome's Trevi Fountain made entirely of calf's butter has arisen in Daley Plaza. Visitors can stand with their backs to the replica, make a wish, and throw a coin over their shoulder. A security guard will then inform them that the actual fountain is at the opposite end of the plaza and make them pick up the coins from the ground.
