Made of granite and white stone, its construction is part of Ventura Rodríguez's project to beautify the Salón del Prado during the reign of Carlos III. Because it hindered traffic, in 1880 it was ordered to be moved to the Plaza de Honduras del Retiro, attached to the Fuente de los Galápagos or Fuente de Isabel II and next to the Pond.
