"Neptunesfontein in Aranjuez" is an etching by Dutch artist Pieter van den Berge, depicting the famous fountain in the Royal Gardens of Aranjuez, Spain. The detailed illustration showcases the grandeur of the fountain, with its multiple tiers and cascading water, and the surrounding lush landscape. The engraving was likely created for a collection of prints depicting notable fountains and gardens throughout Europe, offering a glimpse into the artistic and architectural achievements of the time. Van den Berge's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the representation of the fountain's elaborate ornamentation and the figures surrounding it, capturing the essence of this magnificent water feature.
