The Godfather Of Roman Water Features
The Godfather Of Roman Water Features In Rome’s city center, there are countless famous water fountains. Pretty much all of them were planned, conceived and constructed by one of the greatest sculptors and designers of the 17th century, Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Also a city designer, he had skills as a water feature developer, and traces of his life's work are obvious throughout the roads of Rome. Bernini's father, a celebrated Florentine sculptor, mentored his young son, and they finally relocated in Rome, to thoroughly exhibit their artwork in the form of public water fountains and water features.
The juvenile Bernini was an great employee and received compliments and backing of significant artists as well as popes. His sculpture was initially his claim to popularity. Working seamlessly with Roman marble, he utilized a base of knowledge in the ancient Greek architecture, most obviously in the Vatican. He was affected by many great artists, however, Michelangelo had the biggest impact on his work.
A Wall Fountain to Fit Your Design
A Wall Fountain to Fit Your Design Having a wall fountain in your backyard or on a terrace is ideal when you wish to relax.
You can also make the most of a small space by having one customized. Both the stand alone and fitted types need to have a spout, a water basin, internal tubing, and a pump. You have many styles to a lot to pick from whether you are in search of a traditional, contemporary, classical, or Asian style. Freestanding wall fountains, otherwise known as floor fountains, are relatively big and feature a basin on the ground.
It is possible to integrate a wall-mounted fountain onto an already existing wall or built into a new wall. Integrating this kind of water feature into your landscape adds a cohesiveness to the look you want to achieve rather than making it seem as if the fountain was merely added later.
