The statue representing a River studied here is in the Prince's Garden, Aranjuez. Based on a series of documents, among them the description of a reclining figure in the Marqués del Carpio auction, the author proposes its identification with the Neptune from the Carpio collection, later purchased by Felipe V from the Duchess of Alba. As the work is not specifically named in the Carpio inventories drawn up in Italy prior to shipment to Spain, it is suggested that it may be one of the river figures from the replica of the Piazza Navona fountain the direction of which was commissioned by Carpio from Bernini himself.
