Photos of The Vigeland Park

In his later years, Norwegian sculptor Vigeland spent more than 20 years painstakingly completing nearly 200 statues of figures with different expressions, with a total of 650 figures in relief. These statues all stand in the Vigeland Statue Park in the northwest corner of the capital Oslo. Walking into this lush park, you can see open lawns, lush woods, and ponds, making it a great place for people to take a walk and have a picnic. The sidewalk in the middle of the park is lined with various life-size statues, and the more famous one is a 17-meter-high tower of life and death. The tower is carved with 121 figures intertwined intricately, depicting the world. When people are dissatisfied with life on earth and climb to "heaven", they are fighting each other and supporting each other. These statues are all made of copper, iron or granite, and they tell life and life in various poses. Walking through the park is like stepping into an outdoor art gallery, which is claimed to be the largest sculpture park in the world. In addition, if you are interested in sculpture art, you can also visit the Vigeland Gallery next to the park, which displays Vigeland's early statues, molds and sketches.
