"The features of the fountains built in the 1500s are very different from those dating back to the previous centuries, both from an architectural point of view and for their position within the urban space. Medieval fountains were built along the road and placed under house archways, while the sixteenth-century ones were added to an already consolidated urban environment and so had to be adapted to the surroundings.
Thus Saint Pancras Fountain, designed by Pietro and Leonardo Isabello in 1549, was positioned at the centre of a square which already had its own geometric identity. This is one of the reasons why the fountain base evokes the square regular layout."
