The fountain projectiles are in the shape of a semicircle, resembling the fanned tail of a male peacock strutting his stuff. The water basin is sometimes filled with foam much to the enjoyment of children (and adults) passing by. The fountain was placed in 1989. It was given to the city of Oslo by Christian Ringnes, "a flamboyant businessman and art collector from Norway." --Wikipedia (visit link)
