Église Saint-Merri
The Stravinsky Fountain
The whimsy of 16 animated sculptures stands in contrast
to the flying buttresses of this ancient church
with its "Gothic Flamboyant" architectural style.
The fountain sculptures were installed in 1983...
The church built between 1500 and 1550...
Which of these two Paris landmarks will look the best in 200 years?

The one built between 1500 and 1550!! Beautiful church! Hope your weekend is going well, Genie!

Without a doubt, the church.
Like now, they will both look great, only different :^)
Excellent question! For me, the answer is easy. Bon dimanche, Genie.
The church will out-do the sculptures ... Love flamboyant gothic style! Really do love the contrast of the modern and ancient in this photo!!
What an interesting sight. The colours are really popping in your photo.
Now those are fun.
It would not break my heart if the sculptures fell apart and were removed before September came along.
Very creative sculptures, I love the colors!Wonderful picture!

very very super!!:)))
merci cher Genie :))*
i loved those Niki's
St. Merri will look best -- but oh! The fountain is a great deal of fun and I love the contrast!
I love the colorful ones, but wish they would ditch the black ones!

Probably the same one that looks the best now.
I like the church so much more than the fountains. I'm sure I'd like the fountains much more in a different setting, in a park maybe.
