| The bronze fountain of a boar is a symbol of Florence, Italy. The fountain figure was sculpted and cast by Baroque master Pietro Tacca . Visitors to Il Porcellino put a coin into the gaping boar`s jaws with the intent to let it fall through the underlying grating for good luck and rub the boar`s snout to ensure a return to Firenze, a tradition that has kept the snout in a state of polished sheen. |
