Fourth Grotto, with theme of shells, bees and dolphins, Neoclassical marble statue of Flora by Giovan Battista Monti, and 19th century model ship, in the Apartment of Grottoes, in the Palazzo Borromeo, built 1632-1948 by the Borromeo family, on Isola Bella, in the Isole Borromee or Borromean Islands, on Lake Maggiore, Piedmont, Italy. The grottoes form a summer apartment for Vitaliano VI Borromeo, built 1689-1769 by Filippo Cagnola and Giulio Galliori. The walls and vaults of the 6 rooms are encrusted with stones, tufa, lava, coal, mica and marble, encased in stucco decorations of shells, nymphs, sirens, dolphins, fish and turtles.
