This working bronze water fountain by sculptor Edgar Walter is located in Morningside Park, featuring a bear discovering a faun (a blend here between  man and goat) in a grotto. It’s named the Alfred Lincoln Seligman Fountain in memory of the vice-president of the National Highways Protective Association, who died ironically in an automobile accident.
