Description

Fountain with a decidedly singular appearance in which natural and artificial elements are combined to form a unique and unusual whole: mounted on a large stone block, partially completed with masonry consisting of other blocks, is an enamelled metal fountain decorated in 18th-century style; the basin is semicircular.

The fountain seems to have been created from salvaged bathroom fixtures dating from the 19th or early 20th century.
