Muut tiedot
n 1917, one of Carl Milles's most famous sculptures was conceived - "Sun Glitter." The naiad that rides on its dolphin is said to have been a favorite figure of the artist. Carl Milles is known as the master of fountains and also created "The Little Triton" and "The Little Naiad" the same year. His earlier work depicted a heavier shape, but during this period, he loosens up the forms and makes them more floating. Tritons, ocean gods, dolphins, fishes and nymphs became the perfect beings for Milles to use to express liberation. He worked on the naiad theme in the Susan Fountain from 1916 and created "Sun Glitter." The liveliness and freedom in the details gives the sculpture a feeling of defying gravitation. It stands outside the Swedish Institute's building, which was designed by Tengbom in 1940, in Rome.
