Triton Babies Fountain, Bronze sculpture in Public Garden, Boston, United States.
The Triton Babies Fountain features two bronze infants with tridents standing on a granite base measuring approximately 2.5 feet high.
Created by sculptor Anna Coleman Ladd in 1922, the fountain became the first artwork by a female artist installed in the Boston Public Garden.
The sculpture represents the connection between childhood innocence and classical mythology through the portrayal of infants with attributes of Triton.
The fountain operates under the maintenance of Friends of the Public Garden organization, which ensures its preservation for public enjoyment.
The bronze figures in the fountain were modeled after the sculptor's own daughters, adding personal meaning to this public monument.
