I am not sure if this is a fountain, a sink, or just some sort of foreign looking sculpture. I came across this while on a tour of the Casa del Podestà in Lonato del Garda, Italy with Katia and Guido.
One more photo (taken at a slightly different angle) of this foreign looking sculpture or fountain or sink.

Wow! What an interesting sculpture. It almost looks like an alien of some sort. Perfect for the theme.

Candi's right, it looks like an alien! Very bizarre and cool. I wonder what it is?
Hope you're having a good weekend.

Interesting, but mildly frightening!

What an odd looking fountain! I'm always amazed at the creativity of those who designed fountains years ago - who knew water could spring forth from so many unusual spots!

That is indeed one unusual sculpture. Mine is up but I have not had time to check others out.

Again this is one of those themes that can easily take so many directions. I've got to admit that that is a strange looking ??? However, great shots and perfect for the theme.

Thanks everyone. I agree, it does look a bit alien-ish. I am guessing it probably was a fountain at one time.

Ok, those actually looked like chicken carcasses to me on first glance. Then I noticed the heads on top and now am speechless at this bizarre sculpture! :)
