Comptine, Installation artwork in Tuileries Garden, France.
The Comptine sculpture group incorporates multiple pieces made from bronze, epoxy resins, and iron materials within the gardens between Louvre and Place de la Concorde.
French artist Anne Rochette created this installation in 1999 as part of the national initiative to introduce contemporary art into the historic Tuileries Garden.
The name Comptine translates to Nursery Rhyme, featuring mushroom-shaped figures and other elements that reflect childhood themes throughout the garden space.
Located in Paris's 1st arrondissement, the installation remains accessible to wheelchairs and can be viewed during regular garden opening hours throughout the year.
The polychrome finishes on the sculptures create a visual connection between modern artistic expression and traditional garden elements dating from the 16th century.
