This first HD photo shows a bas relief sculpture surrounding a porthole style window, sometimes referred to as a bullseye, which is called La Justice et la Fraternite, and in English this translates to Justice and Fraternity.
You will find that this was produced by Joseph Felon who was born in Bordeaux in 1818 and initially studied to become a painter, but also studied to be a sculptor and a lithographer as well.
Joseph Fellon started exhibiting at Salons for French artists from 1840 and received several public commissions including this relief of Justice and Fraternity for the former Palais du Louvre, along with others for tourist attractions such as the Jardin des Plantes and the Eglise Saint Etienne du Mont.
So, here you can see one of the pyramids within the courtyard of The Louvre called the Cour Napoleon as we are looking towards the facade of the Pavillon Richelieu, and you will see the sculpture of La Justice et la Fraternite to the left hand side of the door on the ground floor level of this ornate wing.
