在《喷泉》中，斯特拉进一步探讨了艺术媒体的界限。虽然壁画尺寸，7×23英尺的小片不是一幅画，而是一幅印刷品。《喷泉》是斯特拉迄今为止在纸上最广泛的作品，也是他以版画为媒介的最高成就——自1960年以来，斯特拉作品的一个重要方面——利用了7种工艺和61种不同的颜色。这部作品属于一个大型的，多样的系列斯特拉创建在1985和1997之间的基础上赫尔曼·梅尔维尔的Moby Dick。因此，对斯特拉来说，这在某种程度上构成了对抽象表现主义的敬意，许多抽象表现主义的艺术家也创作了受亚哈与鲸鱼的史诗斗争启发的作品。恰如其分，并且与斯特拉作品的非代表性相一致，《源泉》是抽象的，反映了斯特拉传达运动感和故事力量的目标，而不是具体的叙述。

In the Fountain, Stella further explores the boundaries between artistic media. Although mural-sized, the piece - measuring 7 x 23 feet - is not a painting, but a print. The Fountain is Stellas most extensive work on paper to date and his culminating achievement in the medium of printmaking - a vital aspect of Stellas work since the 1960 - utilizing seven processes and sixty-one different colors. The piece belongs to a large, diverse series Stella created between 1985 and 1997 based on Herman Melvilles Moby Dick. As such, for Stella it constitutes an homage of sorts to Abstract Expressionism, a number of whose artists also created works inspired by Ahabs epic struggle with the whale. Fittingly, and in keeping with the nonrepresentational nature of Stellas work, The Fountain is abstract, reflecting Stellas goal of conveying both a sense of motion and the power of the story, rather than the specific narrative.
