La Seine et ses Affluents, River sculpture at Petit Palais, France.

The Seine River and its Tributaries statue portrays water deities through marble figures positioned at the entrance of the Petit Palais in Paris.

Maurice Ferrary created this marble statue for the Universal Exhibition of 1900, when the Petit Palais first opened its doors to international visitors.

The sculpture represents the harmonious relationship between the Seine River and its tributaries through classical mythological interpretations of water elements.

The statue remains accessible for viewing throughout the year during regular Petit Palais opening hours, with entrance through the main gates.

The statue incorporates multiple marble figures arranged in a triangular composition, representing the Seine River at the apex with tributaries at lower positions.

Location: 8th arrondissement of Paris
