EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Fontaine des Innocents, a Renaissance-style monumental fountain that was constructed in 1549 during the reign of Henry II. The collaborative efforts of Jean Goujon and Pierre Lescot brought this architectural masterpiece to life, with Augustin Pajou later adding his touch to the fourth facade during the 18th century. The Fontaine des Innocents holds a significant place in Parisian history as it stands at the center of Innocent Marche Square, which was created after the removal of an ancient cemetery. Its grandeur and intricate details are beautifully captured by photographer Kim Young Tae in this image. The photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistic brilliance of Goujon, Lescot, and Pajou but also highlights their contribution to French architecture. The elegant lines and ornate carvings showcased in this Renaissance gem serve as a testament to their skillful craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this stunning piece of art frozen in time through Young Tae's lens, we are transported back to an era where beauty and innovation thrived. This print is a reminder of how timeless masterpieces like the Fontaine des Innocents continue to inspire awe and admiration even centuries after their creation.
