Latone

Latone Latona Versailles fountain
So there she is. Latona with water. Those of you who follow VDP on a regular basis will remember the May posts about the end of the long, long restoration of the gorgeous fountain in the palace gardens. They were here, and also here and finally there. As for the lady before restoration, have a peek here, with links to the mythological and allegorical meaning as well as a video. Below, the view she currently enjoys onto Anish Kapoor's 'Dirty Corner'.

La voici en eau. Ceux d'entre vous qui suivent régulièrement VDP se souviendront des billets du mois de mai, de la fin de la restauration de la très belle fontaine des jardins du château. Ils étaient ici et ou encore . Pour la voir avant restauration, en 2011, cliquez ici. Pour l'histoire, l'allégorie, c'est par là !
