The Isolotto is a renowned feature of Florence's Boboli Gardens, crafted in the seventeenth century by architect Alfonso Parigi. This picturesque island, depicted in Dan Brown's Inferno, is celebrated for its striking sculpture of Perseus on a half-submerged horse, dramatically emerging from the water. • Situated at the heart of a square encircled by towering holm oak hedges, the Isolotto is a focal point within a large circular basin. It is linked to the mainland by two charming bridges, each adorned with grand gateways and statues of Capricorns, emblematic of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany's power. Flanking these gateways are four whimsical fountains shaped like male harpies, which gracefully spill water into ornate shell-shaped basins embellished with grotesque marine creatures. This enchanting space combines art, history, and nature, offering a captivating glimpse into Florence's rich heritage. • Home Is Where We Are - https://columbusintl.com/en/florence/
