This
fountain is set in a gorgeous square. I didn’t even note the mosaics in the
fountain’s base; unless that’s a recent addition. At night it’s lit up with
many colours. Oddly, I never got any shots of the fountain in daylight. It’s a
very open area between the two churches; and for that reason it’s easy for the
police to patrol it from a distance. There’s hardly any trees to offer shade or
cover. It’s a public place and there are many benches for people to sit and
soak up the atmosphere. It’s well laid out with its stone cobbles and its
fences to discourage people from sitting in the flowerbeds; not that they don’t
succeed. I wonder what mischief goes on around here; or whether it’s a social
sin to disturb the peaceful atmosphere. Surely someone must have gone for a dip,
begged for cash or attempted a heckle? Perhaps we went at the wrong time of
year for that.
