Fontaine Wallace

In 1871 on the Boulevard de la Villette in Paris, the first fountain bearing the name of its donor to the City Sir Richard Wallace a major British philanthropist and art lover was unveiled A hundred or so water points were constructed and installed in Paris based on two models designed by the sculptor Charles-A Lebourg Built in order to provide passers-by with free access to drinking water these fountains attest to the importance of the mechanical and industrial revolution that was taking place during the Victorian era

Build Your Own Garden Fountain
For some, water fountains may be daunting. Others may decide to build their own garden water fountain. If so, you could hire an electrician who could install a power source near your pond. Ideally the landscaping for a garden fountain is very close to the patio so that while you are relaxing on the patio, you are soothed with the sounds coming from your fountain.
