Day Two in Oslo

On our second and last day in Oslo we went to Vigelandsparken - Sculpture Park.



There are some very... interesting sculptures. Almost all are naked.

The monster eating the woman.



The far end of the park.; the entire park was filled with tourists.



The only sculpture I saw with clothing.



The fountain which was turned off due to construction.



Babies in a tree.



And the ground was a maze.



One of the more bizarre sculptures. There was also one of a man kicking a baby.



A pile of babies.



I guess this could be considered the main sculpture. It was very tall.



Looking back at the park.



Some hugging girls.



Past the main sculpture was a sundial.



With the zodiac carved around its base.



And the sculpture at the end of the park.



Where, again, you could see the ski-slope. It looks really steep to me.



Afterwards we went to the National Museum of Art where we saw The Scream by Edward Munch. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take pictures of The Scream but we were allowed to take pictures of other paintings.

Spring by the Seine - Claude Monet (1875)



Self-Portrait - Vincent van Gogh (1889)



Guitar - Pablo Picasso (1912)



A Picasso piece that I can actually tell what it is. From 1903 Man and Women by Pablo Picasso.



And my favourite artist there. Larvik by Moonlight - Johan Christian Dahl (1839)



 

And that was my weekend in Oslo.
