Informations supplémentaires

The 17th century fountain La France triomphante is the work of the sculptor Jean-Baptiste Tuby ---The monuental sculpture symbolically representing the triumph of France in wars over Spain and Austria -- King Louis XIV wrote, "In my heart I prefer fame above all else, even life itself--- Love of glory has the same subtleties as the most tender passions." He and his ministers often sponsored such works, using allegorical figures and symbols to convey narrative meaning. The trophies of armor signify military skill, and the fleurs-de-lis adorning the garments of the figure in the ceremonial chariot were an emblem long associated with the French crown.
