Western Square Pond (with the fountain "Venus of Italy")

Description:

One of the so-called "Square Ponds" (which are actually rectangular) is located next to the Special Warehouse of the Grand Palace.

Square ponds were intended to accumulate water supplied to the Great Cascade.

In the center of the pond is a fountain with a sculpture of Venus of Italy - a copy of the eponymous sculpture by Antonio Canova.
