The Many Styles of Wall Fountains

The Many Styles of Wall Fountains You can find peace and quiet when you add a wall fountain in your backyard or patio. You can also make the most of a small space by having one custom-made. Whether it is stand alone or fitted, you will need a spout, a water bowl, internal piping, and a pump. There are any variety of models to pick from most notably traditional, contemporary, classic, or Asian.

Also referred to as a floor fountain, a stand-alone wall fountain is normally rather large, and its basin is placed on the ground.Many Styles Wall Fountains 7376867236233855909.jpg

You can decide to place your wall-mounted fountain on an existing wall or build it into a new wall. Incorporating this type of water feature into your landscape adds a cohesiveness to the look you want to attain rather than making it seem as if the fountain was merely added later.

Bernini's Earliest MasterpiecesBernini's Earliest Masterpieces 3083320275376582.jpg Bernini's earliest fountain, named Barcaccia, is a breath taking work of art seen at the bottom of the Trinita dei Monti in Piaza di Spagna. To this day, you will find Roman locals and vacation goers occupying this space to revel in chit chatter and being among other people. Bernini would undoubtedly have been happy to know that people still flock to what has become one the city's trendiest areas, that around his amazing fountain. In about 1630, the great master designed the very first fountain of his career at the behest of Pope Ubano VIII. Illustrated in the fountain's design is a great vessel slowly sinking into the Mediterranean Sea. According to 16th century documents, a great flood of the Tevere covered the entire area in water, an event which was memorialized by the eye-catching fountain. In 1665 Bernini traveled to France, in what was to be his sole lengthy absence from Italy.
