Saint Project Fountain Bordeaux / FRANCE:

Saint Project Fountain Bordeaux / FRANCE description:

This fountain was erected in 1737. According to most sources, this fountain was drawn by Michel Van der Woort, but this might be wrong (see below)

The statues above the fronton represent the rivers Peugue and Devèze. It was at the confluant of these rivers that the Middle Ages city was created.

The fronton shows the city arms of Bordeaux and fruits.

According to Joost van der Voort (translated by us): 'This fountain is work of Michiel van der Voort, born in Antwerp, son of the famous sculptorMichiel van der Voort-the Elder (see wikisage.com for further info).'
