This "Untitled" work is a white marble three-tiered outdoor fountain sculpture. The top two tiers are attached to a concave wall; the third tier consists of a round pool situated on a plaza floor. The top tier is a vertical shell. The second tier is a small circular basin with another vertical shell placed on the front face of the basin. Water falls through the top two tiers and into the pool below. The inscription on inside edge of fountain near wall reads: Silvana - Maisano Anno MCMLXXXIX signed.
Fun Fact: Fountains represented as public art are a rarity in Beverly Hills. The Fine Art Ordinance no longer allows for decorative and architectural elements to be chosen.
