Untermeyer Fountain: E105

Sculptor: Walter Schott 1861-1938•  Germany
Gift of the children of Samuel and Minnie Untermeyer

Located within the center of the North Garden at the Conservatory Garden stands the bronze Untermeyer Fountain, known as the "Three Dancing Maidens."
Three smiling young woman dance around the limestone base of the fountain as they playfully reach for each others hand. The delicate water sprays their bodies while their dresses swirl about as if in motion.
It was sculpted by Walter Schott in 1910, and came to the Garden as a gift of the Samuel Untermeyer Family in 1947.
