Frogner Park ((ノルウェー語:Frognerparken)) is a public park located in the borough of Frogner in Oslo, Norway, and historically part of Frogner Manor. The manor house is located in the south of the park, and houses the Oslo City Museum. Both the park and the entire borough derive their names from Frogner Manor. Frogner Park contains, in its present centre, the world famous Vigeland installation ((ノルウェー語:Vigelandsanlegget)), a permanent sculpture installation created by Gustav Vigeland between the 1920s and 1943.〔(''Frogner Park'' (Visitnorway.com) )〕 Although sometimes referred to as the "Vigeland (Sculpture) Park," ((ノルウェー語:Vigelandsparken))〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vigelandsparken )〕 the Vigeland installation is not a separate park, but the name of the sculptures within Frogner Park. The sculpture park consists of sculptures as well as larger structures such as bridges and fountains. The park of Frogner Manor was historically smaller and centered on the manor house, and was landscaped as a baroque park in the 18th century by its owner, the noted military officer Hans Jacob Scheel. It was landscaped as a romantic park in the 19th century by then-owner, German-born industrialist Benjamin Wegner. Large parts of the estate were sold to give room for city expansion in the 19th century, and the remaining estate was bought by Christiania municipality in 1896 and made into a public park. It was the site of the 1914 Jubilee Exhibition, and Vigeland's sculpture arrangement was constructed from the 1920s. In addition to the sculpture park, the manor house and a nearby pavilion, the park also contains Frognerbadet (the Frogner Baths) and Frogner Stadium. The Frogner Pond is found in the centre of the park. Frogner Park is the largest park in the city and covers 45 hectares;〔(''Frognerparken'' (Frogner Park's friends) )〕 the sculpture installation is the world's largest sculpture park made by a single artist. Frogner Park is the most popular tourist attraction of Norway, with between 1 and 2 million visitors each year,〔(Om Frognerparken ), Frognerparkens Venner〕 and is open to the public at all times. ''Frogner Park and the Vigeland installation'' ((ノルウェー語:Frognerparken og Vigelandsanlegget)) was protected under the Heritage Act on 13 February 2009 as the first park in Norway.〔(Frognerparken og Vigelandsanlegget ), Kulturminnesøk〕〔(Miljøverndepartementet: «Frognerparken fredet» ) besøkt 13. februar 2009〕 ==History== In the middle of the 18th century Hans Jacob Scheel, then owner of the Frogner Manor, laid out a baroque garden adjacent to his new manor house. It was expanded by the people who followed him, starting with Bernt Anker (1746–1805) who bought Frogner in 1790 and expanded the main building. Benjamin Wegner took over the property in 1836 and he transformed the garden into a romantic park around 1840. Later, most of the arable land was sold to private developers. Around one square kilometer remained when the City of Oslo bought the property in 1896 to secure space for further urban development. The municipal government decided around 1900 to make a park for recreation and sports. Frogner Stadium was opened near the road and the area near the buildings was opened to the public in 1904. Norwegian architect Henrik Bull designed the grounds and some of the buildings erected in Frogner Park for the 1914 Jubilee Exhibition. 〔(''Welcome to Frogner Park'' (Agency for Outdoor Recreation and Nature Management) )〕〔(''Jubileumsutstillingen i Kristiania, 1914'' (Geir Tandberg Steigan) )〕 The municipal government subsequently decided that Gustav Vigeland's fountain and all his monuments and statues should be placed in the park. The area was ready for Gustav Vigeland fountain in 1924 and the final plan was released in 1932 by the city-council. Most of the statues depict people engaging in various typically human pursuits, such as running, wrestling, dancing, hugging, holding hands and so on. However, Vigeland occasionally included some statues that are more abstract, including one statue, which shows an adult male, fighting off a horde of babies.〔(''History of Frogner Park'' (Aktiv I Oslo.no) )〕 File:OB.08008 Hans Jacob Scheel.jpg|Would-be General and Chamberlain Hans Jacob Scheel (owner of Frogner from 1747) laid out a baroque garden around 1750 File:Jb wegner.jpg|Industrialist Benjamin Wegner (owner of Frogner from 1836) transformed the garden into a romantic park around 1840 File:Gustav Vigeland 1929.jpg|Sculptor Gustav Vigeland created the sculpture arrangement in the centre of the present enlarged park from the 1920s until his death in 1943 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frogner Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
