FONTANA DEI 4 FIUMI, BERNINI

It is commonly said that Bernini had drawn this of the fountain's allegorical figure, the Rio de la Plata,, to mock his rival Boromini; in particular, this one facing the church of S. Agnese, raises its hand as if protecting itself from the building, likely to fall.

Dazu gibt es - wie oft zu solchen Bauwerken konkurrierender Meister - Legenden.

Nicely captured Annemarie, the hands look a little out of proportion I wonder if that was to signify something
