Clémence Isaure fountain

The Clémence Isaure fountain (fr: Fontaine Clémence Isaure) is a fountain with a bronze sculpture in Toulouse, France. It represents Clémence Isaure.

History

Its construction was patronized by Octave Sage, a pharmacist, in 1905. It was designed by sculptor Léo Laporte-Blairsy. It was dedicated in 1913.

In 1942, in the midst of World War II, the bronze sculpture was removed and hidden in a safe place to avoid being smelt and turned into weaponry. It was reassembled after the war.
