I just have to share some more of the photos I took in
Vigeland Park. We spent three days in
Oslo altogether and Vigeland Park was my favorite place there. I would like to think that if I lived there,
I would go there with great frequency because I am sure I would never tire of
looking at these amazing statues.
This fantastic place is the world’s largest sculpture park
with works made by a single artist. It
is the life work of Gustav Vigeland. There
are more than 200 figures on display. All are naked, it is said, but one. The one clothed figure is that of the
artist. I didn’t manage to get a photo of that
one.
Every aspect of human emotion is present here. These sculptures are wonderfully humane. Some day I would love to go back and spend at
least ten minutes with each one.
It was a disappointment that this magnificent fountain was not working while we were there, but if you click here, it takes you to The Vigeland Park website and you can see what it is like when it is.
