| Artist/Maker |
Ink and wash drawing of a large sculptural fountain. A central element made up of rocky sculpture and two mermen figures sits within a large low circular basin. The mermen hold a smaller scalloped-edge basin on their backs. A smaller rocky formation sits within the upper basin where water jets up vertically from the centre and flows from the smaller basin in the larger lower one below.
