FOUNTAIN OF PIAZZA DEI QUIRITI

FONTANA DI PIAZZA DEI QUIRITI 
1928 Attilio Selva (1888/1970) from Trieste
Also known as FONTANA DELLE CARIATIDI (Fountain of the Caryatids)
The four naked women holding the bowl made a scandal at the time of the inauguration, forcing the fine sculptor from Trieste to an advocacy on behalf of the "classical nude"
