Se ci fosse stata l'acqua sarebbe stato più emozionante, davvero un gran peccato,ad ogni modo, vale la pena vederla ! La statua rappresenta la sirena Partenope . A Napoli è conosciuta come" Fontana delle Zizze" .

Dating from the 16th century (1498), the "Fontana di Spina Corona" ,(also called "Fontana delle Zizze" or Fountain of the t1ts by the locals), is a public wall fountain, made of stone and featuring a sculpture of the Parthenope siren (not in the sense of fish tail, but in the original, harpy-like depicting of mermaid). In this case, the jets of water come out of the woman's breasts.

Incantevole statua che raffigura la sirene Partenope che dal seno scorre l’acqua per placare la focosa passione del Vesuvio su napoli, questa è una copia, l’originale e nel museo di San Martino.
