Alberto Giacometti Swiss, 1901–1966
Walking Man II
1960
Alberto Giacometti's 'Walking Man II' ('L'Homme qui marche II', 1960) is a full-length bronze figure stretched to almost two metres tall, striding forward on thin, elongated legs — the definitive image of existentialist postwar sculpture and Giacometti's answer to the ancient walking figures of Egyptian art.
