L'Été, Marble statue in parc de la Tête d'Or, France
The L'Été statue stands in the parc de la Tête d'Or of Lyon's 6th arrondissement, representing the season of summer through classical sculpture techniques.
Joseph-Hugues Fabisch, who created L'Été, directed the École des Beaux Arts in Lyon from 1871 to 1876 while maintaining his workshop on the Saône River.
The statue represents the continuation of classical French sculpture traditions in Lyon during the 19th century, when public art gained prominence.
Visitors can find the statue within the parc de la Tête d'Or, which opens daily from sunrise to sunset and offers free entry to all.
The statue forms part of Fabisch's non-religious works, contrasting with his famous religious sculptures such as the golden Virgin of Fourvière.
