Rzymskie fontanny Gianlorenzo Berniniego są znakomitym przykładem dzieł sztuki okresu pełnego baroku. Na podstawie ich hermeneutycznej analizy dowodzę, że woda zawiera w sobie cechy, które są kluczowe dla stylu barokowego. W artykule omawiam sylwetkę Gianlorenzo Berniniego, historię zaprojektowanych przez niego fontann, a także cechy, które pozwalają mi utożsamić wykorzystaną w dziele sztuki wodę z istotą baroku: zestawienie natury i kultury, ideę nieskończoności oraz ruch.

Gianlorenzo Bernini’s fountains in Rome are tremendous examples of late baroque works of art. In this article I am going to prove that water incorporates characteristics of the late baroque, on the basis of hermeneutic analysis. Firstly, the article presents Bernini as an artist. Further on, a brief story of his fountains is introduced, and finally the characteristics which enabled me to connect the idea of water with the essence of baroque, a juxtaposition of nature and culture, the idea of infinity and motion, are explored.
