Italian Carved Limestone Fountain Spout of the Roman God Mars
About the Item
Hand-carved in Italy, this limestone fountain spout depicts the Roman God of war and courage, Mars. As seen here, Mars is often depicted in art wearing a crested helmet. The helmet itself is symbolic of protection and defense. Known in Greek as “Ares”, Mars was known as the protector of Rome.
Beneath the plumed visor, Mars’ long, curly hair is paired with a thick beard. The mouth is open, allowing the plaque to be paired with a pool of fountain basin. Behind the visage of Mars is a scrolled and attenuated console that allows our Italian carving of Mars to be used as a mounted wall sculpture as well. The stone has a very even gray patina, with a few accents of gold and white detectable. This would be a fantastic wall-mounted water feature for a pool, basin, or fountain.
