Fountain


This fountain is one of the two fountains found on the Place de la Concorde at the bottom of the Champs Elysées.
The fountains represent the inland navigation (north fountain on the picture) and the sea navigation (south fountain). The both have ship bows that you can also find in the Paris coat of arms.

What a gorgeous fountain! I love the combination of green and gold.
