The Cleveland Museum of Art's medieval table fountain, c. 1320-40,
is the only version of its kind to have survived in its complete
form from the Middle Ages. A superb example of French Gothic
goldsmithing, it is an exquisite metalwork structure and a unique
example of courtly taste and princely fashion, which was designed
not for any religious purpose but purely as an indulgence. Its
uncertain provenance has added to its charm. This focus volume
reassesses this extraordinary piece in the context of other similar
luxury objects, analysing specifically the fountain's history,
functionality, materials, and style.
