Chatsworth House, canal pond and great fountain, with one through zero sculpture.

When Tsar Nicholas I (1796-1855) announced a trip to England, men worked day and night to complete the Emperor Fountain in time for his visit. Work continued at night by the light of flares and the whole project took only 6 months to complete – and after all that, the Tsar never came to Chatsworth!
