When it comes to water and fountains, he certainly cannot miss: Neptune, god of the seas and lord of all waters. The statue of the god is actually well hidden in this case. A waterfall descends, in the center of the composition, thanks to a difference in level in successive terraces, up to the central basin. Behind the veil of water, in a niche that seems to simulate a cave, lies the bust of Neptune.
