La fontana dell'Elefante è un'opera monumentale realizzata tra il 1735 e il 1737 dall'architetto Giovanni Battista Vaccarini. È collocata al centro della Piazza del Duomo di Catania. Il suo elemento principale è una statua di basalto nero che raffigura un elefante, chiamato comunemente u Liotru e considerato l'emblema della città siciliana. Sulla schiena dell'animale si trova un obelisco egittizzante], alto 3,66 metri, in granito. Non ha geroglifici, ma è decorato da figure di stile egizio che non costituiscono una scrittura geroglifica di senso compiuto. Sulla parte sommitale dell'obelisco sono stati montati un globo, circondato da una corona; una foglia di palma (rappresentante il martirio) e un ramo di gigli (rappresentante la purezza), più sopra una tavoletta metallica su cui vi è l'iscrizione dedicata a sant'Agata.

Magnificent work located in the historical center of Catania that you have well used for a nice street where the water that kids use to cool off..... It must not be enough to the tourist in the lower right as it is certainly very heated :-D Congratulations Sergio :-P Hello Rosario :-P

Yes, Rosario!
You're quite right, finally a sunny Sunday, last April, which has very much heated the young lady in question :-P.
would have deserved a close-up exclusive, the girl, but I did not want to overlook U ' Liotru :-D
Thank you so much for your passage and for the always welcome compliments.
Hello
Sergio

hello Goodcaptain.
In this shot I had to "satisfy" my mental project involved the use of the 17mm focal with a closer close-up of the beautiful tourist and the background of the "Liotru" ;-)
I am content to keep myself at a decent distance ;-) :-D
I thank you for your positive comment
A great greeting
Herst
