Chiavari: the fountain on the seafront.
The Chiavari seafront has been modernized for several years: one of the most important interventions was the construction of this modern fountain, of large dimensions, facing the sea. The realization of this work has aroused both criticism and perplexity and positive comments, personally in the context of a modern seafront promenade I find it quite beautiful!
