La Fuente de Sevilla
Fuente de Sevilla fountain, also known as "Fuente de la Puerta de Jerez, "niños meones" or Diosa Hipalis", was created by sculptor Manuel Delgado Brackembury for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929.
The sculptural ensemble features three superimposed seats, formed by a group of children on six turtles playing with a giant lotus. These make up the base of the main sculpture: a lady on a throne symbolising the city of Seville. The turtles represent the slow and safe advance of the city, and the lady's melancholic look is a reflection of the awareness of Seville's historical past.
