Claus Sluter- The Well of Moes

   This fountain named The Well of Moes was designed by Claus Sluter in Chartreuse de Champmol, Dijon, France in 1395-1406. It was a lime stone sculpture and painted and gilded by Jean Malouel.  I found this artwork interesting for which it supposed to be a water source for the monastery, but water never spout from the fountain since the monastery committed to silence. Also even though the figures on the fountain recall French Gothic, the sculptures are far more realistic.
