Fontaine des Quatre Dauphins
Four carved dolphins give this fountain its identity in a small square of the Mazarin quarter. The sculptural centrepiece adds detail to the district's planned streets and grand houses.

Look closely at the dolphins and how they support the ornament above the basin, then step back to read the fountain within the square. It offers a manageable example of Baroque carving without requiring an interior visit. The contrast between this compact sculptural group and the surrounding town houses makes it useful as a short pause during a longer architectural walk.
