Fountains and ponds of the Middle Ages to the early Renaissance

After the fall of the Roman Empire, the monasteries kept alive the gardening tool until the early Renaissance in the fourteenth century. It paved the way in managing land and water management, using wells, rivers and streams and ponds residential installation. simple tank can be found in the garden of the monastery and in many monasteries of a wall fountain has been placed in the cloister and, later, crossing paths cross, perhaps as part of the religious symbolism of the cross or the Garden of Eden. One of the factors that influence the design of the source was the decoration of the early church in the sources and basins of holy water. The design of the basin, which took the overflow from one source, was inspired by the iconography of the size and the number of sides of a source. Six was important in the writings of St. Augustine, and which has been associated with the sixth day of the Passion, the day of the Crucifixion St. Augustine took as a symbol of the destruction of the body of sin. octagonal ponds also have their origin in Christian doctrine, where eight parties represented on the eighth day, which means the resurrection of Christ, who became the first day or the beginning of a different world to the newly baptized. In the Middle Ages remarkable public display of religious characteristics of water such as fountains and water carved review only in major churches. Decorating the church frequently have adopted policies of biblical stories relating to water, such such as baptism of Christ and John the Baptist, and the stories of Moses.

The source of Viterbo Saint Faustina minimalist decor with four sources León. The lion is the symbol of courage, nobility and strength to many cultures for thousands of years throughout Europe.

Early Renaissance

During late 1400 there was a cultural shift toward an appreciation of the finer aspects of art and literature. Now the art has to be appreciated solely for their own well. In Italy, the evolution of philosophical thought began by Marsilio Ficino made efforts to reconcile the pagan religion and the growing interest in the remains ancient pagan images allowed to be considered acceptable for contemporary design. Small bronze figures of pagans were particularly popular and have been very popular and collection. Could be admired, discussed and treated with great appreciation for his knowledge of his subject. Similar designs were perfect for power figures. So far, most sources, even those numbers have been against a wall where he was hiding a tank. Bronze fountain figure of Donatello flame wall Boy with a fish wings sunset, which dates from about 1435 to 1440, may be the link between the separate wall fountains bronze. The winged angel or based child almost in the round. He stands with all his weight on his right leg to balance the big fish is on his shoulders while looking down on the left. Stabilize the fish left hand and holds her to others in a clenched fist down. A dip net between the fingers of his right hand indicates that this cavity, once held an object, possibly a small water wheel attached to a bar swirling force splashing through the child. As the water fills the figure that also ran the mouth of fish. It is a source of joy after the traditional belief that children brought happiness urinate. Donatello has carved many small figures in his career Examples of cherubs loans in ancient tombs, near Florence. One, in a sarcophagus in the Campo Santo of Pisa, shows a crop of fruit and wine collected by a baby putti lift his shirt to urinate. Equally important were the antiquities Brunelleschi, Donatello's friend, was reported to have thought nothing of walking 80 km/50 miles to see an old ship in Cortona, saying the matter.

One of the problems faced by Renaissance artists were interested in the design of autonomous source bronze sculpture was a way to resolve the points of view through a the number required. Donatello produced probably the first sculpture of this style around 1430, the bronze statue of David, now in the Bargello in Florence, with the lost wax method. Because there was so little water source for the exhibition, the artists had to consider the impact of the source when he was not working. The lines of the architecture of the Renaissance gardens could be maintained in all seasons of planting shaped evergreen and architectural elements, the sources must be equally interesting, at any time. Other problems in the production of spring at this time including the need for a mechanism to vary the speed of water flow and the difficulty of implementing drawings.

Due to issues such as the pagans Child with a dolphin are acceptable in the art, humanist patrons who want to maintain the appearance of the Christian faith can do so despite the decoration of the gardens with images pagan. The book Hypnerotomachia Poliphili by a Venetian monk, Francesco Colonna, was published in 1499. Follow the steps of the hero, Poliphili in a dream sequence that begins with a stream and continues through the magnificent gardens of an imaginary world. Twelve sources are described in detail, each acting as a staging of the story unfolds. Giochi d'acqua (water games) and table sources are described, but there is little technical precision. Timely rediscovery grotesque decoration (named because it has been found in caves) in the Domus Aurea (Nero's Golden House) in Rome in the 1480s gave artists an opportunity to consider this style in his work. This can be seen in the woodcuts in the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili. characteristics and sources of water in private homes have been holding a person or family wealth and prosperity.
