God our Father on the Rainbow, Fountain sculpture in Nacka Strand, Sweden.
The sculpture reaches a height of 18 meters, featuring a central figure representing God mounted atop a water spout installation.
Carl Milles originally designed this sculpture in the 1940s for placement at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.
The sculpture represents the connection between divine presence and natural elements through the combination of flowing water and metal craftsmanship.
Visitors can access the sculpture through public transportation from central Stockholm to Nacka Strand, with regular bus services available.
Water jets create a rainbow effect around the central figure, forming an integral part of both the artistic concept and fountain mechanism.
