photohunts: sculptures ~ daydream


  sculptures   ☀   daydream 

If  you happen to be walking down the Rambla del Raval in Barcelona, you might think you are daydreaming  (even if you are not a cat lover!) when you encounter this large bronze sculpture of Fernando Botero, a Colombian painter and sculptor who is renowned for his exaggerated, puffed up human and animal forms. .

Dimensions: 7,17 m / 23.5 ft long,  2,28 m/ 7.5 ft wide ,
                        2,16m / 7 ft tall, weight: 2200 Kg/4850 lb.

  5. It's interesting to see that the cat doesn't have any chains screening off its space, etc.! So... people can just walk up to it and stroke it if they like? ;b
