An episode from the series THE MANY FACES OF PARIS

Synopsis

The control of water, an essential element for survival, has always been a significant issue for mankind.

Throughout history, all sorts of inventions, such as the aqueduct or the well, were aimed at conserving and transporting it as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Although these innovations have disappeared to make way for modern pipe networks, the most ornamental function still remains today: the fountain.
