Luminous fountain, Monumental fountain in L'Aquila, Italy.
The fountain features two bronze female figures supporting a central basin, creating a harmonious composition of water, metal, and stone elements.
Sculptor Nicola D'Antino completed this public monument in 1934, during a period of architectural transformation in the Abruzzo region.
The figures represent women from the Abruzzo region, wearing traditional garments while carrying water vessels according to local customs.
The fountain stands at the intersection of major streets in L'Aquila, providing a central reference point for navigation through the city.
The water flow creates light effects when sunlight passes through the streams, generating patterns that change throughout the day.
