This drawing by Benvenuto Cellini, a renowned Italian goldsmith and sculptor, depicts a design for a fountain. The drawing showcases Cellini's masterful ability to capture the dynamism of the human form. At the top of the fountain stands Hercules, the central figure, surrounded by a swirling composition of tritons riding horses. Nymphs are shown lounging on the rim of the fountain, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. Cellini's intricate details and masterful rendering of movement reveal his artistic genius and contribute to the timeless appeal of this fountain design.
