25 Of The Most Creative Sculptures And Famous Statues From Around The World
Our cities are full of majestic monuments, stunning sculptures and artistic statues, each having a story to tell. While the first statues were meant to celebrate the gods, later famous people, military leaders, and generals, now it might also be a modern art and abstract piece of work. A sculpture’s main purpose today is public art – something that’s aesthetically pleasing and adds color and emotion to even the most boring areas of the cities. Thousands of them have been made but only a few of them are really extraordinary and thus, famous statues. That’s why our readers set out to find the world’s most creative ones, from modern sculptures to classical artworks.
For some time, bored pandas around the globe have been submitting their pictures of the most famous sculptures here. We have received more than 160 pictures and hundreds of votes which resulted in this awesome list. We added a couple of our own pictures and made the final compilation of the most creative sculptures and statues from around the world. Be sure to check it below!
