The Fontaine de Mars is a large fountain that was installed around 1806 – 1808 on rue Saint-Dominique in the 7th arrondissement. On the eastern and western flanks of the fountain are vases, both of which depict the same fetching goddess. The features of her pulchritudinous fanny are clearly visible to fortunate passersby who happen to glance up.
