Fountain Of Neptune In The Spanish Capital Of Madrid Stock Photo

The Fountain of Neptune, in Spanish Fuente de Neptuno, is a neoclassical fountain located on the centre of the Plaza de Cánovas del Castillo, a roundabout in the Paseo del Prado. The sculptural group in its centre represents Neptune, a Roman water deity. The sculpture is made of white marble from Montesclaros and formed by a circular pylon with the sculptural group in its centre. The crowned Roman god wields a trident with one hand while he grabs a sea snake with the other hand.
