Ramblings of a retiree in France
You’ll find La Fontaine des Spheres or Spherades in the Galerie d’Orleans section of the garden within the Palais Royale, Paris. Sculpted by Belgium Pol Bury (1922 – 2005) the stainless steel spheres form a kinetic fountain which, with its mirror finish, reflects the architecture of its magnificent surroundings.
This challenge used to be hosted by the Mind over Memory blogger but, sadly, he no longer has the time. However, I take loads of photos of statues and sculptures so I’m pressing on regardless!
Share a photo of a sculpture – go on, give it a go, you know you want to!
pretty bad choice for those metallic balls in the Palais Royale or Royal Palace!

I love this! Imagine trying to take a photo without capturing yourself. It’s a beauty, Sheree.

If you’d told me what the sculpture was without my seeing a picture, I’d have said “bleh”. It works though, and feels quite appropriate for the location. π
