    The fountain was commissioned by Wilfried Holleis, Grand Hotel Zell am See. Hundertwasser developed an ecological landscape installation in which water circulates through the vegetation. Water from the lake flows into the fountain pond and continues to the highest part of the fountain to flow back to the pond like a waterfall. A closed circuit. Later, Hundertwasser decided to dedicate the fountain to the nine Austrian states, with each of the pillars representing a state. The height of each column corresponds to the number of inhabitants of the respective state. The colors of the pillars were to be proportional to the proportion of colors in each state coat of arms, based on Hundertwasser's design of the coats of arms for Austrian license plates.
