Description

In 1661, when André Le Nôtre was commissioned to design and lay out the gardens of Versailles, Charles Le Brun supervised the team of sculptors installing fountains, statues and vases. Original works or copies of antique models made by the scholarship students of the Académie française in Rome, over 300 sculptures were commissioned to adorn the gardens. Celebrated sculptors such as Girardon, Tuby and Coysevox produced numerous masterpieces which made the gardens famous.

Completely astonished by the "poetry" in this photo, I even reworked the image and created a wallpaper for personal use, but if you give permission I will publish it...
