EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Fountain in the Place du Chatelet, Paris, 1810" by Etienne Bouhot. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece is housed in the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in France. The image captures a moment frozen in time at the heart of Paris. Intriguingly, the column depicted was constructed by Leopold Morice in 1883 and is known as Monument a la Republique. Interestingly enough, two previous columns once stood within this square; one now resides in La Villette and the other at Place Daumesnil. Originally designed during Napoleon Bonaparte's reign, La Place du Chatelet holds historical significance. Atop the column stands a winged figure created by Boisot that symbolizes victory and triumph. This remarkable structure commemorates Napoleon's victories and serves as a testament to his legacy. Adding to its charm is La Fontaine du Palmier situated nearby which draws water from Pompe Notre-Dame. The fountain adds an element of tranquility amidst the bustling street scene captured within this artwork. With its exquisite French architecture serving as a backdrop for horse-drawn carts and promenading individuals towards Ile de la Cite, this print transports viewers back to early 19th-century Parisian life. Immerse yourself in history with this enchanting depiction of "The Fountain in the Place du Chatelet" available through Fine Art Finder
