Dinglingerbrunnen, Baroque fountain at New Gewandhaus, Dresden, Germany.
The Dinglingerbrunner fountain features a basin resting on a double-tailed creature, with an open shell flanked by cherubs holding cornucopias above.
Created after 1718 for court jeweler Johann Melchior Dinglinger, the fountain originally stood in the courtyard of Dinglinger House near Dresden's Neumarkt.
The fountain's decorative elements include pilasters, cherubs, dolphins, and a Bacchus head, topped by a double-opened shell containing a golden pearl.
The fountain remained dry until May 2008 due to water pipe damage from the 2002 Elbe flood, but now functions normally at the Gewandhaus Hotel.
Sculptor Werner Hempel restored the surviving fragments of the fountain after the 1945 Dresden bombings and installed them at the Gewandhaus in 1966.
