The Salle de Bains, ultimately completed in 1782, featured a pair of palatial limestone reliefs depicting Venus and Cupid and Leda and the Swan and Pan Pursuing Syrinx, two pairs of vases, and a large fountain of the present reclining nude, titled Vue de la Naïade allongée, dite La Source (A. Poulet, Clodion: 1738-1814, Paris, 1992, pp. 248-251).Proving to be an enduring image, La Source was creatively fitted as a clock by the 19th century's preeminent ébénistes and bronziers.
