The intricate details of the relief sculpture, with its flowing water and delicate floral patterns, are a true embodiment of the Rococo architectural style. The sinuous curves and organic forms are not only aesthetically pleasing but also reflect the period's emphasis on the natural world and the harmony between man and nature. 6.
