Nr. 32: Gammel mann og gammel kvinne is a statue by Norwegian sculptor Gustav Vigeland.

It shows an elderly man and an elderly woman. The work belongs to the Vigeland installation in Oslo’s Frogner Park, a sculpture environment devoted to Vigeland’s artistic vision. Human experience shapes the park’s central artistic subject. Vigeland’s figures span life’s stages, with relationships, emotion, and aging recurring throughout his sculptural work. The two elderly figures express a human connection.

Bronze, granite, and wrought iron appear across the wider installation, which Vigeland planned as a complete artistic environment. Stone and metal define the installation’s principal materials. Vigeland’s focus on the human body gives the figures expressive, natural forms rather than theatrical poses. Their advanced age anchors the subject in time. Together, the statue and surrounding works form a visual account of family, relationships, and the cycle of life. The surrounding park extends the statue’s human meaning.

Nr. 32 places a specific encounter within Vigeland’s broader exploration of people and shared experience.
