Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

La fontana del Porcellino è uno dei monumenti più popolari di Firenze, situata a margine della loggia del Mercato Nuovo, nell'omonima piazza vicino al Ponte Vecchio.

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Il Porcellino (Italian "piglet") is the local Florentine nickname for the bronze fountain of a boar. The fountain figure was sculpted and cast by Baroque master Pietro Tacca (1577–1640) shortly before 1634, following a marble Italian copy of a Hellenistic marble original, at the time in the Grand Ducal collections and today on display in the classical section of the Uffizi Museum. The original, which was found in Rome and removed to Florence in the mid-16th century by the Medici, was associated from the time of its rediscovery with the Calydonian Boar of Greek myth.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

La Fontana del Porcellino ou plus simplement Il Porcellino (« porcelet » par dérision puisqu'il s'agit d'un sanglier sauvage adulte) est le surnom local que les Florentins donnent à la fontaine représentant un sanglier, réalisée en bronze par le maître baroque Pietro Tacca vers 1633 d'après une copie italienne de marbre d'un exemplaire hellénistique. Ce dernier, qui fut trouvé à Rome et transporté à Florence au milieu du XVIe siècle par les Médicis, fut associé au sanglier de Calydon. Après avoir fait partie des collections grand-ducales à l'époque de la commande du bronze, l'original de marbre est maintenant exposé dans la section classique du musée des Offices.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Die Fontana del Porcellino ist eine der populärsten Skulpturen von Florenz und geht auf ein griechisches Vorbild zurück. Die Skulptur des Ebers am Rande der Loggia del Mercato Nuovo in der Nähe der Ponte Vecchio wurde und wird international immer wieder kopiert.

Summary from Español / Spanish Wikipedia (eswiki)

La Fuente del Porcellino (en italiano: Fontana del Porcellino), o simplemente Il Porcellino (en español: lechón o cochinillo) es el nombre local que los florentinos dan a una popular fuente de Florencia, situada a un lado de la logia del Mercado Nuevo, cerca del Ponte Vecchio. Su nombre es irónico pues se trata de un jabalí salvaje adulto, realizado en bronce por el maestro barroco Pietro Tacca hacia 1633[1]​ a partir de una copia romana en mármol de un original del período helenístico. Este último, encontrado en Roma y transportado a Florencia a mediados del siglo XVI por los Médici, se asoció al jabalí de Calidón de la mitología griega.[2]​ Tras haber formado parte de las colecciones del Gran Ducado, el original de mármol se expone actualmente en la sección clásica de la Galería Uffizi.
