This beautiful interior fountain was made in stone in the 40’s in a Neoclassical style.
Put on a foot with three scrolls, the fountain is composed of a moulding half circle bassin above which there is an important sculpture. It depicts a child with prominent muscles holding above his head a load in a rocky decor.
This child can very probably be a représentation of Heracles as a child, hero of the Antique Greece of whoom the most known achievement are the twelve labours.
