We had passed it several times over the last few years as we travelled either north or south along the eastern coastline of the UK — the massive Angel Of The North sculpture looming over the highway outside of Newcastle. But this time, in spite of the snow flurries and icy temperatures, we stopped to view this huge piece by British artist Antony Gormley.
I’ve made sure that I included two images that contain an adult in them so you can get an idea of the scale of this very, very large piece of artwork.
Enjoy!
