Fuente de Génova, Renaissance fountain in Plaza de la Constitución, Málaga, Spain.

The marble fountain features three levels adorned with mythological figures, including sirens, dolphins, and Neptune, along with decorative water spouts and medallions.

Created in 1551, this fountain required 1000 ducats from the Málaga City Council and underwent restoration in 2016 to recover its original white color.

The fountain combines Italian Renaissance artistry with Spanish architectural elements, displaying the coat of arms of both Málaga and Spain in its structure.

Located in the central square of Málaga, the fountain remains functional under the maintenance of Emasa, the municipal water management company.

Three female figures with bifurcated mermaid tails interlink with bat wings while holding flower crowns in the lower section of the fountain.
