Man Chasing Four Geniuses Bronze, by Gustav Vigeland, 1930 Image by Wolfgang Claussen, 2016 |
||||||||||
| A sculptural depiction of a man pursuing four small figures, often interpreted as 'geniuses' or symbolic representations of elusive ideas, inspiration, or forces beyond human control. It blends realism with allegory, emphasising the struggle, vitality, and absurdity of human existence, as is characteristic of much of Vigeland’s work. It is located in Vigeland Sculpture Park, part of Frogner Park in Oslo, whose theme is the cycle of life—birth, struggle, love, conflict, and death. |
