Water and fountains

Everywhere water is at work: mascarons, basins, fountains and threads of water descend from the terraces. In a Roman garden, water is at once coolness, music and prestige — it marked the mastery of the lord of the place. These water-games, discreet here, accompany the stroll with a continuous murmur.
