La Fontaine Saint-Sulpice, designed by Louis Visconti, in 1843, sits on the plaza in front of this beautiful church.Visconti also designed the tomb of Napoleon.
I remember seeing these lions V. Very impressive. I believe Saint Sulpice iw the largest cathedral in Paris and was the setting for some of the drama in Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons". It is an enormous and cavernous place.
An impressive fountain!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info! This is indeed a magnificent fountain.
ReplyDeleteIn this one, the lion almost looks like a playful cat who wants to play with the fountain's stream.
