Where did Landscape Fountains Come From?

Where did Landscape Fountains Come From? A fountain, an amazing piece of engineering, not only supplies drinking water as it pours into a basin, it can also propel water high into the air for a noteworthy effect.

From the beginning, outdoor fountains were soley there to serve as functional elements. Water fountains were connected to a spring or aqueduct to provide drinkable water as well as bathing water for cities, townships and villages. Landscape Fountains Come From? 55411501.jpg Until the late nineteenth, century most water fountains operated using the force of gravity to allow water to flow or jet into the air, therefore, they needed a source of water such as a reservoir or aqueduct located higher than the fountain. Serving as an element of adornment and celebration, fountains also supplied clean, fresh drinking water. Bronze or stone masks of wildlife and heroes were commonly seen on Roman fountains. To depict the gardens of paradise, Muslim and Moorish garden planners of the Middle Ages added fountains to their designs. King Louis XIV of France wanted to demonstrate his superiority over nature by including fountains in the Gardens of Versailles. The Romans of the 17th and 18th centuries manufactured baroque decorative fountains to glorify the Popes who commissioned them as well as to mark the location where the restored Roman aqueducts entered the city.

Urban fountains built at the end of the nineteenth functioned only as decorative and celebratory adornments since indoor plumbing provided the necessary drinking water. Impressive water effects and recycled water were made possible by replacing the power of gravity with mechanical pumps.

Nowadays, fountains decorate public spaces and are used to pay tribute to individuals or events and fill recreational and entertainment needs.

Agrippa's Eye-popping, but Mostly Forgotten Water-Lifting Technology

Agrippa's Eye-popping, but Mostly Forgotten Water-Lifting Technology Though the machine created by Agrippa for carrying water gained the esteem of Andrea Bacci in 1588, it seemed to disappear not very long after. Only years afterward, in 1592, the early modern Roman aqueduct, the Acqua Felice, was attached to the Medici’s villa, possibly making the device outdated. The more plausible reason is that the unit was forgotten when Franceso di Medici, Ferdinando’s siblingdied in 1588, leading him to give up his rank as cardinal and go back to Florence where he obtained the throne as the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It could go against gravitation to lift water to Renaissance landscapes, providing them in a way other late 16th century designs like scenographic water exhibits, musical fountains and giochi d’acqua or water caprices, were not.
