Apollo's Chariot fountain restored in France

 




Paris, France

Workers restore the lead of a sculpture forming part of the Apollo’s Chariot fountain at the Coubertin foundry in Saint-Remy-les-Chevreuse, south-west of Paris.  The sculpture in the Versailles gardens by Jean-Baptise Tuby, depicts the god of the sun driving his four-horse chariot full pelt, symbolising the ascent of the rising sun.  Photograph: Emmanuel Dunand/AFP/Getty Images
