The Fontana del Tritone (Triton Fountain) is a seventeenth-century Baroque fountain in Rome, Italy, located in the Piazza Barberini. It was conceived and sculpted by the renowned Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini during the papacy of Urban VIII. Commissioned by the Barberini family, whose palace faced the piazza, the fountain was completed in 1643 as part of a project to enhance the family's urban properties and to celebrate the endowment of the Acqua Felice aqueduct.

The Fontana del Tritone is a masterful example of Baroque sculpture and is considered one of Bernini's most imaginative and dynamic public fountains. The fountain's design features a large Triton, a mythological Greek god of the sea, kneeling atop a conch shell supported by four dolphins. The Triton blows water through a shell, which he holds aloft, creating a dramatic upward spray that falls into the basin below. The muscular figure of Triton and the dynamic movement of the water exemplify the Baroque fascination with motion, emotion, and the theatrical interplay between art and its surroundings.

Bernini's work on the Fontana del Tritone showcases his skill in integrating sculpture with architecture and urban planning. The fountain not only serves as a decorative element but also fulfills a practical function, providing fresh drinking water to the citizens of Rome. The design of the fountain, with its grand scale and central location, transforms the piazza into an outdoor room and a focal point for social and urban life.

The Fontana del Tritone remains one of Rome's iconic landmarks and a testament to Bernini's artistic genius. It continues to draw admiration from visitors and scholars alike for its innovative design, technical prowess, and its embodiment of the Baroque spirit. The fountain has been well-preserved and underwent a thorough restoration in 2013, ensuring that it remains a vibrant part of Rome's cultural heritage.
