EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate beauty of Gustav Vigeland's Monolith in Frogner Park, Oslo. The intertwined human figures depicted in this detail showcase the artist's mastery in capturing the complexity and interconnectedness of human relationships. The monolith, a towering sculpture made entirely from grey stone, stands as a national landmark and an iconic symbol of Norway's rich artistic heritage. In this close-up shot, we are drawn into the intimate details of each figure, their naked bodies entwined with one another in a harmonious heap. The vertical composition emphasizes the monumentality of this artwork while also allowing us to appreciate its delicate nuances. Bathed in natural daylight, every contour and curve is highlighted with precision. As we explore this photograph further, it becomes evident that Vigeland sought to depict both male and female likenesses within his creation. This gender balance adds depth to his portrayal of humanity's shared experiences and emotions. Frogner Park itself is renowned as a must-visit travel destination for art enthusiasts worldwide. Its open-air gallery showcases over 200 sculptures by Vigeland, making it one of Europe's largest sculpture parks. Eleanor Scriven/Robert Harding has skillfully captured not only the visual splendor but also the essence behind Vigeland's masterpiece through her photography. With no people present in the frame, our attention is solely focused on these traditionally Norwegian figures lying on their side – frozen yet alive with emotion.
