The fountain is dominated by a sculpture of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea. This marble statue was originally part of the Chafariz do Loreto, which stood in Largo do Chiado between 1771 and 1853. The statue was later moved to the center of Praça do Chile, and finally to Largo de Dona Estefânia, where it currently stands.

The Fonte do Largo de Dona Estefânia, also known as the Neptune Fountain, is a prominent sculpture in the Arroios district of Lisbon.

It was created in collaboration with the Portugália restaurant, which is celebrating its centenary. The mural is composed of hand-painted tiles produced by the historic Viúva Lamego factory, famous for its artistic ceramics in Portugal. Akacorleone was inspired by the architecture, history, and symbolism of Lisbon, incorporating elements such as monuments, traditional patterns, and bright colors.

Akacorleone's mural at Avenida Almirante Reis 173, Lisbon, is a vibrant and contemporary work that is part of the SEAT Art Cities project, curated by urban artist Vhils.
