Angry Boy, Bronze sculpture in Frogner Park, Oslo, Norway
The Angry Boy statue displays a young child with clenched fists, standing naked and showing strong emotion through facial expressions and body posture.
Gustav Vigeland created this bronze sculpture between 1925 and 1933 as part of a collection featuring 212 human figures in Frogner Park.
The sculpture represents raw human emotions and childhood tantrums, forming part of Vigeland's larger exploration of human relationships and life stages.
Regular touching by visitors has caused wear to the statue's surface, leading to multiple restoration efforts to maintain its protective bronze patina.
The statue's hand requires frequent repatination due to thousands of visitors holding it while taking photographs, creating a constant golden shine.
