The Fountain of the Marine Genius in Piazza Colombo

The fountain of the Marine Genius in Piazza Colombo in Genoa.
In the very central Piazza Colombo there is this beautiful fountain (which was previously in front of the Royal Palace) restored quite recently.
The photo was taken coming from Via XX Settembre along Via Galata.

Photo taken with Canon EOS RP and lens Canon RF 24-50.

Here's where the fountain is located:

The fountain was moved from Ponte Reale to Piazza Colombo in 1861 to embellish the new nineteenth-century square commissioned by the architect Resasco. Not only beauty but also utility since the barchile served as a watering place for horses and mules coming from the countryside that passed through loaded with vegetables towards the eastern market.

I took a lot of photos around the city of Genoa and you can find almost all of them here or by searching in the various articles specific to the Ligurian city.
If you want to find some ideas to learn more about the Superba I refer you to the website of the Municipality's Tourism: visitgenoa.it. This is the institutional website of the Municipality: smart.comune.genova.it.
If you are looking for a nice portal that talks about all of Liguria I invite you to visit the official website of the Region: lamialiguria.it.
If you need a good paper guide of the city I invite you to consult these publications: Genova e il Tigullio, Genova. Una guida or Guida indipendente alla città di Genova.
If you are passionate about mysteries and legends then I suggest you read these two books: Alla scoperta dei segreti perduti di Genova and Genova misteriosa.
