Paris, France — The Victory courtyard garden (Cour de la Victoire Jardin) at the Carnavalet Museum. Four beds of patterned boxwoods occupy the courtyard’s four corners, and a statue of Victory stands atop a pedestal centered on the terrace.

The Victory statue is by sculptor Louis-Simon Boizot. It is his original version of the gilded Victory statue which tops the Fontaine du Palmier in the Place du Châtelet.
