    < b > Isidore Konti (Austrian/American, 1862-1938), < /b > "Eros", a patinated bronze figure after the 1914 model, the winged, wistful figure depicted nearly nude and reclining, on an integral base, signed on the base "[copyright] 1914 I. Konti", h. 5-3/4", w. 8-1/4", d. 8-1/4". Ref: Mary Jane Smith Madigan, et al., < i > Sculpture of Isidore Konti, 1862-1938 < /i > , (Yonkers, NY: Hudson River Museum, 1975), ex. cat. Hudson River Museum, January 29-March 30, 1974, item 59. < i > While his name may not be familiar to most New Orleanians, Isidore Konti's sculpture assuredly is. He created the figures for both the Sophie and Simon Gumbel Memorial Fountains at The St. Charles Avenue entrance to Audubon Park (1918), as well as those for the Sara Lavinia Hyams Fountain and Wading Pool at the Carousel Gardens entrance in City Park (1921). An identical Hyams wading pool is hidden in plain sight near the Magazine Street entrance to the Audbon Zoo; both it and the one at City Park were cast by the Roman Bronze Works in New York. < /i >
