NEPTUNE IN PIAZZA SIGNORIA sent on March 21, 2023 (17:48) by Annamaria Pertosa. 56 comments, 823 views. [retina]

at 31mm, 1/1000 f/5.6, ISO 100, hand held. Firenze, Italy.

Di fronte a Palazzo Vecchio si trova la Fontana del Nettuno. L'apparato scultoreo venne eseguito tra il 1560 e il 1565: l'Ammannati, che aveva avuto uno studio provvisorio sotto la loggia della Signoria, sfruttò anche i disegni di Baccio Bandinelli, nel frattempo morto nel 1560. Fu inaugurata in occasione delle nozze tra Francesco I de' Medici e la granduchessa Giovanna d'Austria il 10 dicembre 1565. La figura di Nettuno è realizzata in marmo bianco di Carrara e riprende i tratti somatici di Cosimo I de' Medici. Benché la statua non fosse particolarmente apprezzata, i lavori proseguirono nei dieci anni successivi, con l'aiuto dei migliori scultori della città per il bordo della vasca. La vasca è ottagonale e contiene i quattro cavalli del cocchio di Nettuno (due in marmo bianco e due in marmo rosato), le cui ruote sono ruote celesti coi segni zodiacali, simboleggianti il trascorrere del tempo. Ai piedi del Nettuno stanno tre tritoni intenti a suonare delle tibie che zampillano acqua. (Firenze e i suoi monumenti)

The BN certainly gives greater prominence to the beauty of the composition in all its forms (let's hope the Americans do not arrive :-) ), always very interesting your carrying captions, congratulations Annamaria.
Best regards, Rod ;-)

A great classic well taken from you! Beautiful contrasts of black and white that Giannotti stand out the white of the statue against a dark sky, as if it were an infrared film! Congratulations Annamaria and greetings, Massimiliano

Nice photo and great caption; The crowding of tourists is certainly a sign of the attractive force of the place ... but also a limit difficult to cross for shots that can embrace the entire work with a single glance ... patience, Neptune itself is definitely worth admiring.

Beautiful photos, every now and then I take the train and I take a ride around Florence and the sight of these monuments never bores me.
