Vigeland Sculptures Frogmer Park, Oslo

Vigeland Installation so named because it is a permanent exhibition of work.  Vigelandsparken is one of Norway's most visited attractions with more than 1 million visitors every year.   The unique sculpture park is the life work of the sculptor Gustav Vigeland (1869-1943) with more than 200 sculptures in bronze, granite and cast iron. This Norwegian sculptor was the designer of the Nobel Peace Prize medal.  Some of the figures in this park gave me the impression of tortured, disturbed souls.
Ann and I were in the park at sunrise as where many others, running, walking cycling, dog walkers and tourists!
