Light and the Sea Gods

Description

This image is from a fountain in Italy.  I believe that it is in the Court of the People (?).  My class and I attended a public viewing of today's soccer game in which Italy played for a spot in the World Cup.  They lost, but I was amazed at the crowd.  It was polite, organized, and sat and watched the game.  When something good happened, they applauded.  That was it.  Anyway, I do not know much on this fountain except that it shows the sea gods -- Neptune, Triton and one other.  I am playing with light while I am here and I loved how the sun fell behind the piece to create this dramatic effect.

It's Giuseppe Valadier's Fountain of Neptune, built in the early 1800's I think. Neptune is between two Tritons.

Nice composition!
