CultureVisit: ~15 minFree

The Leda Fountain is a sculpted wall fountain located behind the Medici Fountain in the Luxembourg Gardens, where visitors can see a central bas-relief depicting the legend of Leda and the swan, the work of Achille Valois. The composition includes details such as pilasters decorated with intertwined dolphins, a panel where Leda holds the swan on her lap while water flows from the bird's bronze beak into a semi-elliptical basin, and additional figures such as Cupid shooting an arrow and bronze mascarons at the base.
