Baths of Neptune

The Baths of Neptune are a grand Roman fountain complex located in the Borghese Gardens in Rome. Built around 62 AD, they feature a large basin decorated with beautifully sculpted figures, particularly Neptune, the sea god, and mythological scenes. The baths served both a practical purpose—providing water—and an artistic one, showcasing Roman engineering and sculptural skill. Their elaborate design reflects the importance of water and mythological grandeur in Roman culture, making them a notable example of Roman public architecture and decorative art from the imperial period.
