Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Duchess of Padua Market-place in Padua. In the background the cathedral built in the Romanesque style of black and white marble. A marble staircase leads to the portal of the building. At the foot of the steps are two huge stone lions. The houses at both sides of the stage have gay awnings before the windows and are enclosed by stone arcades. At the right is the fountain, representing a sea god in green bronze reclining on a couch, blowing a horn. Around the fountain is a stone bench. The bells of the cathedral are ringing, and the citizens, men, women and children, are flocking in. Guido Ferranti and Ascanio Cristofano. Ascanio. As sure as I live, Guido, I won´t go a step farther, or my breath will fail - for cursing. Such a damnable will o´ the wisp wandering! (Sits on the bench by the fountain.) Guido. It must be here.
