"Old School" Fountain Designers

"Old School" Fountain Designers Frequently serving as architects, sculptors, artists, engineers and discerning scholars, all in one, fountain designers were multi-faceted people from the 16th to the later part of the 18th century. Leonardo da Vinci, a Renaissance artist, was celebrated as an creative master, inventor and scientific master. The forces of nature guided him to examine the qualities and motion of water, and due to his fascination, he systematically captured his ideas in his now famed notebooks. Transforming private villa settings into amazing water showcases full with symbolic significance and natural wonder, early Italian fountain engineers coupled resourcefulness with hydraulic and gardening knowledge. Known for his incredible skill in archeology, architecture and garden creations, Pirro Ligorio, the humanist, delivered the vision behind the magnificence in Tivoli. Other water feature developers, masterminding the phenomenal water marbles, water features and water humor for the many mansions near Florence, were tried and tested in humanist subject areas and time-honored scientific texts.
