This is a copy of the Fontana del Bacchino (Fountain of Bacchus).
The fountain, which takes the form of a naked man sitting astride a tortoise, is also known as the Fontanella di Nano Morgante, for the chubby chap is not Bacchus, the god of wine, but Morgante the most celebrated and popular dwarf at the court of Cosimo I de' Medici (b.1519/r. 1537-74), grand duke of Tuscany.
