Title
Fontaine des Puits-Clos
Description
English: The Puits-Clos fountain inaugurated in 1984 by Bernard Calley, architect of French buildings, to hide a blind wall. The facade is dressed in a veneer of bricks of different colors. Three copper basins receive the water distributed by three chantepleures. The facade is punctuated by four pink marble columns with Corinthian capitals, vestiges of the altarpiece installed around 1741-1749 in the church of Dalbade and deposited in the Paul-Dupuy museum in 1930 after the fall of the bell tower. They seem to support an entablature and a pediment with cut sides. Between the central columns was placed, on a pedestal in the shape of a shell, a statue - stolen in 2010 - in cast iron of Psyche trying to see the face of Eros with the help of a lamp, cast of a sculpture of 1867 by Pierre-Bernard Prouha, in the Musée des Augustins.
Français : La fontaine des Puits-Clos inaugurée en 1984 par Bernard Calley, architecte des bâtiments de France, pour masquer un mur aveugle. La façade est habillée par un plaquage de briques de différentes couleurs. Trois bassins en cuivre reçoivent l'eau distribuée par trois chantepleures. La façade est rythmée par quatre colonnes en marbre rose à chapiteaux corinthiens, vestiges du retable installé vers 1741-1749 dans l'église de la Dalbade et déposées au musée Paul-Dupuy en 1930 après la chute du clocher. Elles semblent supporter un entablement et un fronton à pans coupés. Entre les colonnes centrales était placée, sur un piédestal en forme de coquille, une statue – volée en 2010 – en fonte de Psyché essayant de voir le visage d'Éros à l'aide d'une lampe, moulage d'une sculpture de 1867 de Pierre-Bernard Prouha, conservée au musée des Augustin.
Italiano: La fontana Puits-Clos inaugurata nel 1984 da Bernard Calley, architetto di edifici francesi, per nascondere un muro cieco. La facciata è rivestita con un rivestimento di mattoni di diversi colori. Tre bacini di rame ricevono l'acqua distribuita da tre chantepleures. La facciata è scandita da quattro colonne in marmo rosa con capitelli corinzi, vestigia della pala d'altare installata intorno al 1741-1749 nella chiesa di Dalbade e depositata nel 1930 al museo Paul-Dupuy dopo la caduta del campanile. Sembrano sostenere una trabeazione e un frontone con i lati tagliati. Tra le colonne centrali è stata collocata, su un piedistallo a forma di conchiglia, una statua - rubata nel 2010 - in ghisa di Psiche che cerca di vedere il volto di Eros con l'aiuto di una lampada, calco di una scultura del 1867 di Pierre-Bernard Prouha, al Musée des Augustins
