Font del Lleo, Jardins Artigas, Pobla de Lillet
Font del Lleo, or Lion Fountain, with stone sculpture of the lion of St Mark, at the pergola in the Jardins Artigas, gardens built 1905-6 in Modernist style and designed by Antoni Gaudi, 1852-1926, in La Pobla de Lillet, Bergueda, Catalonia, Spain. The gardens are on a plot of land owned by Joan Artigas i Alart, who owned a nearby textile factory. There are many similarities to Parc Guell, and the site includes bridges, a watchtower, fountains, a waterfall and sculptures. The park was restored in 1992 and the sculptures were replaced with those by Ramon Millet i Domenech. Picture by Manuel Cohen
