Large Bronze Wall Fountain of an Angel

About the Item

A large bronze wall fountain depicting an angel. This unusual and striking water feature is inscribed 'sed aqua quam dabo ei fiet in eo fons aquae salients in vitam aeturnum'. The translation reads 'but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a fountain of water into eternal life’ - from the book of John 4:13-14. You can just imagine this impressive water fountain as a centrepiece in a tranquil garden, flowing with water ready for people to enjoy while reading their own book in the relaxing space. Its large scale angel is nicely modelled, sitting cross legged reading a book, while her face shows a calming expression in solid bronze with a weathered finish, and the text lies underneath.
