What is the title of this work by the French artist Marcel Duchamp?

"Fountain" (1917) is perhaps the French artist Marcel Duchamp’s most famous work and is widely considered by experts to be a huge icon of twentieth-century art. This artwork is simply a standard porcelain urinal which the artist bought at a sanitary equipment store, and signed with a false name: R. Mutt.

Duchamp—considered to be the father of Conceptual Art—explained that the false name “Mutt” was a twist on Mott Works, the manufacturing company which produced the urinal.

“Fountain" continues to exert extraordinary controversy, partly because of its humorous and ingenious questioning of the whole concept of art.
