Compare the broad surface of falling water with the basins and carved figures of the old-town fountains. Here the bridge itself becomes the setting, joining infrastructure with a public artwork rather than adding a freestanding monument to a square. Water operation can be interrupted by maintenance or weather, so the physical installation is more dependable than an expectation of seeing it running.
