The centre-piece of the main piazza in Perugia,
once the site of the Roman Forum. The two tier fountain was sculpted
by Nicola Pisano and his son Giovanni, the leading sculptors
in Italy at the end of the 13th century. The Months are particularly
realistic. On either side of the fountain stand the civic and
ecclesiastical centres of medieval government: the handsome Palazzo
dei Priori and the Duomo.
