San Marco Majestic Bronze Lion Fountain BFO-013

San Marco Lion Fountain Symbolism:

The bronze lion fountain of St. Mark is located at 1974 Via San Marco, directly opposite Parco delle Barris. It symbolizes the cultural connection between the neighborhood and Venice, Italy’s commercial center, and conveys a fusion of history and humanity.

The bronze fountain‘s base is constructed of beige marble, its warm color contrasting harmoniously with the metallic texture of the bronze lions, enhancing the fountain’s classical charm.

Exterior Details:

The main sculpture is centered around a bronze lion, depicted in various poses—some lying down, gazing backward, some with their front paws resting on the edge of the base, and some stacked (one crouching, the other squatting). The lions are imposing and powerful, with detailed fur texture and muscle definition, showcasing their majesty and agility.

Base and Reservoir:

The lions are perched on marble bases of varying heights and stepped, with smooth surfaces. The fountain’s base is a sunken circular pool. Water gushes from the edge of the upper pedestal, creating a gentle curtain of water that splashes into the pool, creating delicate ripples.

A Beautiful Ambiance:

The Lion Fountain blends the urban landscape with the vibrant natural environment. Beneath a blue sky and white clouds, it complements the surrounding shops and greenery, creating a relaxing and bright atmosphere. It serves as both an artistic landmark and a vibrant focal point for community life.
