They are standing on a base with sunfish and salmon swimming around. At three locations around the fountain pairs of fish spray water into the upper and lower fountain areas. The sculpture is three-dimensional with no obvious front or back. The Sheraton Columbus Hotel on Capitol Square was built on the historic Hartman Building site in 1984.
