Caryatid - la fleuriste

Caryatid

This sculpture on the premier étage appears to be arranging the garland of flowers.  

Her companion on the other side of the balcony is striking a slightly different pose.

The building was constructed in 1909 by Adolphe Cherioux 

and the two caryatids by sculptor E. Chenevière.

Many of the buildings will have a date and some additional information.  

You just have to look for that detail.

Square de la place Adolphe Chérioux

The bandstand

This square is a work of the architect Jean-Camille Formigé 

and was established in 1896.  

It is a long, narrow green space providing benches 

and a play area as well as this bandstand.  

The landscaping and trees buffer the noise from the busy Rue de Vaugirard.

Although hidden in this photo, 

you can see the Eiffel Tower just over the bandstand.
