About

Bring charm, movement, and storytelling to a garden or poolside setting with this delightful bronze figural fountain by American sculptor Vernon Geyco. Crafted circa 1980, the whimsical composition captures an endearing childhood scene: a young boy stands holding a large scallop shell as if pouring water toward a kneeling girl below, her uplifted hands and joyful expression anticipating the playful cascade.
Cast in solid bronze and executed as two separate sculptural elements, the figures are beautifully modeled with naturalistic anatomy, expressive faces, and finely detailed hair and garments. The scallop shell serves as both a decorative focal point and functional fountain basin, adding a classical touch to the composition. The surfaces have developed a rich verdigris patina throughout, with subtle tonal variation that enhances the sculptural depth and gives the ensemble an elegant aged appearance ideal for outdoor placement.
Graceful from every angle, the fountain has a strong narrative quality that evokes European garden statuary while remaining warm and approachable in scale. Whether installed beside a swimming pool, in a courtyard, or among landscaped greenery, the pair creates a sophisticated yet playful focal point.
The bronze figures are in excellent condition commensurate with age and outdoor use, and adorn a beautifully weathered verdigris finish throughout.
