Place de la Concorde Restored Fountains

The Summer 2024 Olympics' effect can already be seen in Paris! When you stand on Place de la Concorde, you will notice the scafoldings that had been covering up the two fountains are gone! At last!

On the older photo, you can tell, the statues on the fountains needed a facelift! The orange colour of the fish in the hands of Neptune (photos 3 and 4) is actually the primer applied before the final original gold layer.

On Place de la Concorde there are now huge installations for the upcoming rugby world cup (summer 2023) which will start later this month until October. So we need to wait a few more weeks to enjoy Place de la Concorde with its restored fountains.
