The Godfather Of Rome's Fountains
The Godfather Of Rome's Fountains In Rome’s city center, there are many celebrated water fountains. One of the most distinguished sculptors and artists of the 17th century, Gian Lorenzo Bernini planned, created and constructed almost all of them. His expertise as a water fountain creator and also as a city designer, are visible throughout the roads of Rome. Bernini's father, a renowned Florentine sculptor, mentored his young son, and they ultimately moved to Rome, in order to fully express their art, primarily in the form of public water fountains and water features. An diligent worker, the young Bernini acquired praise and the backing of various popes and influential artists. At the beginning he was known for his sculptural expertise. An expert in historical Greek architecture, he used this knowledge as a platform and melded it flawlessly with Roman marble, most remarkably in the Vatican.
Though he was influenced by many, Michelangelo had the most profound impact on him, both personally and professionally.
