The Fontaine Guy Lartigue sits in the heart of the Latin Quarter, distinguished by its low, stone basin and a modern bronze sculpture that breaks from the neighborhood's traditional ornate fountain style. It was installed in nineteen eighty-four to honor Guy Lartigue, a local jeweler and metalworker who lived nearby. While most Parisian fountains were commissioned for grand city planning, this one arrived through the efforts of local residents and friends who wanted to mark the spot where Lartigue spent his days.
