One of the most artistic highlights of Norway is the Sculpture Park in Oslo. The park contains 192 sculptures, all modeled built by Gustav Vigeland without the assistance other artists. 
Column of Creativity: This column is called ‘The Monolith’ and its 14.12 meters (46 feet) tall which is beautifually carved out of a single block of stone. It consists of 121 figures. Modeled by Vigeland in the years 1924-25. It took three stone carvers from 1929 to 1943 to complete this column.The column is completely covered by human figures in relief, singly or in groups. At the bottom there are seemingly inert bodies. Above them figures ascent in a spiral, the movement halting midway and then rising at a fast pace towards the summit which is covered by small children.
The Fountain at Vigeland Sculpture Park The Fountain is the earliest sculpture unit in the park. In the center of the basin, six giants hold the large saucer-shaped vessel aloft and from it a curtain of water spills down around them. The combination of human beings and trees in two meter high sculptures is one of Vigeland's most original concepts. The tree groups represent a romantic expression of Man's relationship to nature.
Angry boy at Vigeland Sculpture Park: The most photographed sculpture in the park.It is artistically sculptured, but nobody knows why this little boy is crying.
Simply awesome and.. lovely. I wonder when will our country ever start of thinking of building such park and we Nepalis can also take pride in our rich heritage and talented people like Ariniko. Jabo euta sambidhan nirman garna laggda ta testo .. khichatani cha.. K gerne ho khoi..
