Fathers Day
Previously, we saw some of the sculptures of Norwegian artist Gustav Vigeland. Two hundred of them adorn Oslo's Frogner Park. All of them are nude.
Today, to celebrate Fathers Day, we look at a series of Vigeland's sculptures of fathers and sons. Above, a father with his baby.
A father with his little boy.
A father with his son standing on his feet.
A father playing with his son by swinging him around.
A bigger boy getting a piggyback ride.
An older son looks troubled. The father tries to comfort him.
A teenager has misbehaved and is being chastised by his father.
And finally, a father and his grown-up son, connecting as adults.
Happy Fathers Day to all the fathers (and daddies) out there!

What a nice posting! Thanks, Larry.
Happy father's day too, my dad passed away in 2010 but i have amazing bonding moment with him when i was kid, i took a bath and playing with him, he was in the army too, he got nice big muscle body! i'm proud of him
Great presentation! Without you, we would not know of this beautiful art. Fathers are so important to enable boys to become men.
Beautiful works of art. (However, the father "chastising" his son looks more like he's beating him.)
Father/son nudity. Hmmm. Will have to think about that one.
Happy Father’s Day, daddy.
In Italy, Father's Day is on March 19
Happy Father’s Day!
