Description:
Sitting in the middle of a fountain is an island with a tall tree in its center. An adult male stands next to the tree holding a female toddler in his proper left arm and a bag of peanuts in his proper right hand. The girl reaches to two squirrels in the tree with her proper left arm. On the other side of the tree, a young boy kneels on the edge of the island and leans over the water. He holds a turtle in his proper right hand. Behind the boy sits a young girl, who holds the boy's shirt with her proper right hand to keep the boy from falling in. The fountain's basin has a cap of fourteen straight-sided lengths that meet at angles. Three rough-cut blocks are placed where the longer sections meet.
