"Fontein in de tuinen van de Villa d'Este te Tivoli" is an etching by Giovanni Francesco Venturini, created between 1653 and 1691. The artwork depicts a fountain located in the gardens of the Villa d'Este in Tivoli, Italy. The central element of the composition is the fountain itself, which is adorned with a statue of a reclining nymph. The fountain is surrounded by a series of pools and terraces, creating a sense of depth and movement. The etching also features several figures in the background, representing the visitors to the gardens. Venturini's precise rendering of architectural details and the natural environment of the gardens contribute to the realistic and elegant style of the print. This intricate etching captures the grandeur of the Villa d'Este and offers a glimpse into the world of 17th-century Italian gardens.
