Tips

Pierre Joseph Redouté was born on July 10, 1759 and died on June 19, 1840 in Paris. Famous painter, he is indeed the most glorious child of Saint-Hubert.

In July 1845, the principle of erecting a fountain with the bust of the great flower painter was adopted by the municipal authorities, but it was not until around 1868 that it was completed.

In the middle of a large basin, supported by scrolled consoles, rises a massive column with panels, a stepped base and carved sides, on which the statue of Pierre-Joseph Redouté stands. On each side of this column, a mask with a lion's head lets out water. On each carving, a cross is carved in relief and on a base, which divides the basin into four, sphinxes - a kind of fantastic monster with the body of a lion and a human head - seem to watch over the bust of this famous character.
