LÉGENDE | Chevalier séparé de sa promise durant le siège du Mont-Saint-Michel ➽ http://bit.ly/Guillemine-MontSaintMichel Au cours d’un siège mené par les Anglais contre le mont Saint-Michel au début du XVe siècle, Robert de Beauvoir, l’un des 120 chevaliers défendant la place, apprenant que sa promise, à l’extérieur, s’est donné la mort plutôt que de sceller un mariage non désiré avec un capitaine ennemi menaçant de dévaster la région, jure d’obtenir vengeance et sauve "in extremis" l’infâme pour mieux le défier plus tard

Looking at the statue of archangel Michael vanquishing the Devil, along with its fountain hiding the end of the building located on the corner of Boulevard Saint-Michel and Rue Saint-Andre des Arts. The fountain was designed by architect Gabriel Davioud and constructed from 1858 to 1860 as part of urban planner Georges-Eugene “Baron” Haussmann makeover of Paris. The fountain measures 85 feet by 50 feet, requiring the work of nine different sculptors: Henri Alfred Jacquemart crafted the two winged dragons on either side of the fountain; Francisque Duret sculpted the central figure of Saint Michael; Felix Saupin designed the rock under the statue of Saint Michael. The bas-reliefs and ornamental foliage were designedby Noemie Constant; and smaller statues representing the cardinal virtues were sculpted by Jean-Auguste Barre, Claude-Jean Guillaume, Louis-Valentin Robert, Charles-Alphonse Gumery, and August-Hyacinthe Debay. . . . #Paris #saintmichel #fontainesaintmichel #parisphoto #parisjetaime #parislife #parisart #parismonamour #parismaville #parisgram #parislove #pariscity #villedeParis #Iloveparis #parisfind (at Fontaine Saint-Michel de Paris) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG8PySfBjrh/?igshid=nolck9owx2l6
