- Description
- A pavilion stands in a circular basin; it has concave sides and on top a rostral column with a figure. Two anchors are at the front of the column. The water pours from lion masks below the windows of the oblique walls. Bridges lead toward the colonnades which form the central parts of the sides. Two men in the attire of the 17th century stand upon the bridge at the front. Above at right is a part of the plan of the pavilion, drawn in ink. Colored background.
