Introduction to the Fountain of the Four Rivers: The Fountain of the Four Rivers (Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi) was designed by Bernini and built in 1651 as a tribute to Innocent X, Bishop of Pamphili. This fountain uses four figures to represent the four major rivers in the world: the Nile in Egypt, the Ganges in India, the Danube in Europe, and the Plata in America.
