Large wall fountain in natural stone with a sculpted head of Medusa

This fountain is a beautiful French artisanal realisation. Carved into blocks of natural stone of Provence, it is entirely hand made by our craftsmen within our Vaucluse workshops.

What makes this fountain unique and characteristic, beside its large size and its semi-octagonal moulded basin, is its pediment. Indeed, the wall part of this fountain is very finely worked out and presents all kinds of carved decorations : Gothic supports, columns, top diamond tip and, more especially, in its center, a stone sculpture of Medusa as a water outlet.

Medusa (also known as Gorgo) is one of the three Gorgons in the Greek mythology. She has living venomous snakes in place of her hair and has the power to petrify anyone who looks directly at her.
