Haishen Fountain, located on the left side of the Old Palace, was created in 1563-1575. In the middle of the fountain stood a majestic statue of sea god carved from white marble, and in the middle of the pool stood a huge white sea god on a two-wheeled chariot pulled by the hippocampus. The pool is surrounded by colorful bronze statues of various shapes. This group of sculptures in the City Hall Square should be the largest group, so it is also conspicuous, easy to see.

    Amazing and stunning work of art. The gushing sound of water makes the environment ambient and calm.

    The fountain of the sea is located in Florence's famous Lord's Square, in front of the old palace. Nepton is the sea god of Roman mythology, Poseidon of Greek mythology. The sea god in the fountain stands on a high base in the middle of the octagonal fountain, surrounded by mythological figures and Cupid. But the statue is actually a replica, the real thing is kept in the National Museum of Italy

    The sea god fountain, standing quietly at the entrance of the municipal square, the Italians really love the fountain, every important square must have a large-scale fountain, and many are based on the sea god, Florence's Renaissance taste is really everywhere!

    It's in a prominent place on the square, not far from the Cathedral of Notre Dame's Hundred Flowers, where many people take pictures. Florence, Italy, is full of Renaissance history and artistic flavor.

    The fountain of the sea is located in the Lords Square, in front of the old palace. Built in the 16th century by Medici, the statue of the sea of Nepton is a replica and the original is kept in the National Museum. The statue of Nepton is in the middle of the octagonal fountain, and the base is decorated with mythical figures chained.

    The Sea God Fountain is located on the municipal square. For Italy, each square may be equipped with a fountain standard. There will be water in spring, summer, autumn and winter. It is a pity to shoot from the side. The big crane of the Uffizi Art Museum is really eye-catching. In the early morning, it is really quiet here.

    The statue of the sea god in the fountain has been damaged many times, dating back at least to 1580. And unfortunately, the damage has continued until recent years, with the focus on human intention. In recent years, surveillance heads have been installed. Because of the damage, the authentic statue is now in the National Museum, and instead it is a 19th century imitation. It is a fountain that is appreciated and loved, and we do appreciate it and love it!!!!!
