Nice fountain... but with all the classical symbolism, it would look like the rest of the statuary populating old gardens back in England, and so familiar that it wouldn't really be noticed. Ah, but in the middle of the town center of a Victorian-era "frontier" gold rush city, it was (and still is) VERY noticible. ;-) Well, not the bare boobies so much, but the fountain in general... laugh Oh, and I love the hippocampi, too! There's also a drinking fountain on one of the very stylish posts, which I think is a nice touch. bonni
