| The Fontaine Pradier, carved in white marble by James Pradier, Grand Prix de Rome, is the centre-piece of the Esplanade Charles de Gaulle since 1845. There is a female figure on the monumental fountain with a Maison Carrée on her head. Nîmes the beautiful is framed by four watercourses: two nymphs (the Nemausa spring and Fontaine d'Eure) and two heavily muscled giants (the Rhône and the Vidourle). At the background the Arena of Nîmes, a Roman amphitheatre, built around AD 70, remodelled in 1863 to serve as a bullring. |
