One fountain in a set of two, at Villa Borghese, in the massive stairs leading down to National museum of modern art, Rome. The set dates from 1911 and is called Fontane delle Tartarughe (that is, the fountains of the tortoise - and is not to be confused with the Fontana delle Tartarughe, in singular, which is completely different, Renaissance, fountain: www.flickr.com/photos/dameboudicca/3288857504/ )
