Half man, half fish

Reflected in the Cape Dutch pool at the top of the avenue of oaks at Groot Constantia wine estate, is the figure of Triton - half man, half fish - the son of Neptune. It was probably built much later than the main house - possibly in the early 1800s. (The original Triton was replaced with a fibreglass copy in 1985 in order to preserve the original.)
I will be away for a few days in a place where there is no Internet so this is my theme day blog a bit early.
