The Tiber, Tuileries Garden, Paris

In 1859, Charles Nègre received government support to produce 50 photographs of their statuary. He never completed the project and made only a small number of unique prints, of which this is one. This stone sculpture, created in the late 1700s, depicts a human personification of the god of the Tiber River. The waterway runs through Rome, which is symbolized by the she-wolf and twins. This is one of the garden’s four sculptures depicting water deities.
