Fontaine de la Place Sulpice, (1843-1848), by Louis Visconti was designed to represent the idea of religious eloquence, since it was located near the famous theological seminary of St. Sulpice. It honored four famous religious orators of the 17th century; Boussuet, F\u00E9nelon, Fl\u00E9chier, and Massillon.
