The Distribution of Garden Water Fountains Industrial Knowledge in Europe

The Distribution of Garden Water Fountains Industrial Knowledge in Europe Contributing to the development of scientific technology were the printed letters and illustrated books of the time. They were also the primary method of transferring useful hydraulic facts and fountain design suggestions all through Europe. In the late 1500's, a French water feature architect (whose name has been lost) was the internationally distinguished hydraulics leader. His competence in making gardens and grottoes with integrated and imaginative water fountains began in Italy and with commissions in Brussels, London and Germany. The book, “The Principles of Moving Forces,” authored near the end of his lifetime in France, turned into the definitive text on hydraulic mechanics and engineering. Classical antiquity hydraulic breakthroughs were elaborated as well as changes to essential classical antiquity hydraulic breakthroughs in the publication.Distribution Garden Water Fountains Industrial Knowledge Europe 87115930.jpg Dominant among these works were those of Archimedes, the creator of the water screw, a mechanized way of moving water. A pair of undetectable containers heated up by the sun's rays in an area next to the decorative fountain were shown in an illustration. Activating the water fountain is heated liquid which expands and ascends to seal up the conduits. Designs for pumps, water wheels, water features and outdoor ponds are also included in the publication.

The Magificent First Masterpieces by Bernini

The Magificent First Masterpieces by Bernini The Barcaccia, Bernini's first water fountain, is a striking chef d'oeuvre built at the foot of the Trinita dei Monti in Piaza di Spagna. To this day, you will see Roman residents and vacation goers filling this area to revel in chit chatter and being among other people. Today, the city streets around Bernini's fountain are a trendy area where people go to meet, something which the artist would have been pleased to learn. Dating back to around 1630, Pope Urbano VIII mandated what was to be the earliest water fountain of the artist's career. Depicted in the fountain's design is a great ship gradually sinking into the Mediterranean Sea. Period reports dating back to the 16th century show that the fountain was built as a memorial to those who lost their lives in the great flooding of the Tevere.Magificent First Masterpieces Bernini 13102867213239974412.jpg Absenting himself from Italy only once in his life for a long-lasting time period, in 1665 Bernini traveled to France.
