Čeští muzikanti
Čeští muzikanti (Czech musicians) by Anna Chromy & Jan Wagner, 2002
Senovážne náměstí, Nové Město
Prague, September 2024
“Czech musicians, also known as the fountain on Senovážné náměstí, the Four Rivers fountain, the Pražské Jaro fountain or the Dancing Fountain, is an exterior stone fountain with four bronze sculptures with a musical motif. It is located on Senovážné náměstí in the Nové Město district of the Prague 1 district. The Czech musicians fountain was created by Czech painters and sculptors Anna Chromy (1940–2021), who created a bronze sculpture, and Jan Wagner (1941–2005), who created his own fountain from Hořice sandstone. The work was created in 2002. The sculpture on the fountain depicts musicians and musicians as individual streams. The sculpture with the mandolin is the Indian Ganges, the sculpture with the flute is the South American Amazon, the sculpture with the violin is the European Danube, and the sculpture with the French horn is the North American Mississippi.” (Czech musicians, Wikipedia)
