Description

In 1828, the city erected a modest fountain, in the shape of a pink marble column surmounted by a white marquee and a globe, on the site of the equestrian statue. In 1869, it was replaced by the current “Three Graces fountain” representing Aglaé, Euphrosyne and Thalie, daughters of Zeus, drawn by Louis Visconti, sculpted by Charles Gumery and cast by the Thiébaut Frères foundry.
