Neptune's Fountain by Bartolomeo Ammannati (1575) in Piazza della Signoria, Florence. Florence attracts millions of tourists who admire the sumptuous legacy of Renaissance architecture. Undoubtedly one of such masterpieces of art is Ammannati's marble sculpture of Neptune placed in the centre of a fountain, framed by laughing bronze satyrs and sea-horses emerging from the foam in the splashes of shimmering water.
