"This font presides over the parterre of the little garden and appears as a kind of stone rose. It is carved in granite and only the cup is visible. In it we observe the simple upper edge, as well as the border. As for the surface of the cup, on the part that faces the street two animals with antlers can be seen, the one on the right, an allusion to the deer in the Old Testament: “As the deer looks for streams of water, so my soul looks for you to you, Two mine” (Ps 41). On the back, the cup is carved in segments"
