The carved-stone ‘Shell Fountain’, which resides in the beautiful Italian Gardens on the south side of the island, was not originally intended for that placement. Originally there were two, large carved shells – one on each side of the Arch. Over the years vandals destroyed or stole many of the architectural elements on the island and these were lost as well. Over 70 years later, the Thousand Island Bridge Authority found one of them, still intact, on the bottom of the Heart Island Lagoon and incorporated it into the ‘wishing well’ that it is now.

En esta oportunidad, transportamos un imponente shell de 6,70 metros de diámetro sobre una plataforma portante de 4 lÃneas hidráulicas modulares.
Ello implica un importante desafÃo en materia de transporte terrestre por cuanto, como podrán observar en la galerÃa de fotos que compartimos, debemos atravesar ciudades y pueblos y surcar carreteras de asfalto, de ripio y caminos de montaña.
Sun or star fish?
The Shell House was built in the 18th century as a summer house by the lake for the Houblon family. The designs in shells, flint and glass were made by the nineteen year old daughter of the family
One of Ruth's shell images printed small, 6.5x4.5, It was probably a 5x7 negative contact print when she was still using view cameras. It is beautifully lit and arranged on wood that has a similar texture and pattern. She loved seeing those connections in nature. Her apartment was filled with natural artifacts. Please see the notes under the other shell photograph in this collection.
