Another artwork shot from the car. I had seen a sculpture of something like the cedars of Lebanon and wanted to see it again (and stop and take a picture), but this is where the driver took us. We were never able to find the trees again.
But it turns out that this is the famous Cosmos sculpture (thanks to Richard for recognizing it): "Ottmar Hollmann, a German sculptor, is credited with creating more than a dozen, including the Cosmos, which soars a jaw-dropping 36 meters (more than 118 feet) into the sky, making it one of the planet’s biggest sculptures." http://selamtamagazine.com/stories/amazing-sculptures-jeddah
I have been adding pictures pretty quickly to this gallery, which will really be pretty small, but I think its about time to finish up with Jeddah until we return, and I also want to start on my Janadriyah festival images!
For a full description of the enormous display of public art in Jeddah, see the main page of this sub-gallery.
