EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate "Design for the Fountain of the Elephant at Paris" created by an English School artist in the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into Napoleon's grand vision for this colossal fountain. Conceived by Napoleon himself, this magnificent structure was intended to be crafted out of bronze and placed on the iconic Place de la Bastille in Paris. However, due to various circumstances, only a full-scale plaster model was ever completed. Nevertheless, even in its unfinished state, this design exudes elegance and power. The focal point of this masterpiece is undoubtedly the majestic elephant that stands tall at its center. Symbolizing strength and wisdom, it captures our imagination with its lifelike features and attention to detail. Surrounding the elephant are several other animals from wildlife - each meticulously carved to perfection. As we delve deeper into this artwork's details, we can't help but appreciate how it reflects French culture and history. It serves as a reminder of Napoleon Bonaparte's ambitious projects during his reign and his desire to leave lasting legacies across France. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary artistic endeavor that never came to fruition but continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide.
