Paris, one of the 108 Wallace Fountains still operating in the French capital

            Wallace fountains are public drinking fountains designed by Charles-Auguste Lebourg that appear in the form of small cast-iron sculptures scattered throughout the city of Paris, France, mainly along the most-frequented sidewalks. They are named after the Englishman Richard Wallace, who financed their construction. A great aesthetic success, they are recognized worldwide as one of the symbols of Paris. [Wikipedia]

This one is located on the Ile de la Cité on the flower market, presently full of Xmas trees and decorations for sale.
