Creatively Posing With Statues Is A Whole New Art Form

Since the advent of the smartphone with cameras, nearly everyone in the world has become an expert at taking the perfect photos and selfies. Although we can all take photos, that doesn’t mean we are all great photographers.

This photo of a little boy who seems to be helping a rabbit up with his brothers and sisters is the most adorable photo ever, isn’t it? This little man just wants to be of service and help in whatever way he can. We love that about him.

This photo looks like it was taken in a political museum or state building, perhaps. These types of statues can be found in buildings around the world that are open to the public and show ancient statesmen standing around debating and making laws (presumably).

This beautiful sculpture shows what looks to be a man who is possibly bathing or posing nude. Back when this model posed for this sculpture, there probably weren’t disposable razors available, so the razor makes this even more interesting.

This statue in Salt Lake City depicts a mother playing with her little girl by swinging her around. Or it could be a photo of a mother trying to keep her daughter from blowing away in a tornado. At any rate, that’s how the photo posers made it look when they grabbed on!

Did you know that the fear of clowns is actually a real phobia? That’s right. Coulrophobia is a debilitating fear of clowns. The fear of clowns is usually tied to a traumatizing event in a person’s past, and it is a powerful thing.

This sculpture was completed long before Queen Bey (Beyoncé) was even born, but the pose is just beautiful, even if it was a man. The man is standing with his head looking down, and wow, is he ever ripped! Look at that six-pack.

This snowman will without a doubt melt in the following days since it looks like the snow in the area is rapidly fading away, but that’s not stopping the snow-knight from asserting his power while he still has it. He’s holding up his sword and shield and trying his best to keep this terrifying prehistoric creature at bay.

This man appears to be held hostage by this cute little cupid. It’s almost like the cupid is saying, “Give me back my bow and arrow or I will punch you out, dude!” Cupids are adorable, but it’s not a good idea to cross them, it seems.

In this list, we have included some funny sculpture poses and some sweet sculpture poses, but this is perhaps the most adorable. The little girl appears to be joining a line of children who are following a lady playing the violin.

We aren’t sure where this unique sculpture is, but it’s gorgeous, isn’t it? It appears to be a woman hugging a man and saying either hello to welcome him home or goodbye to bid him farewell. We know this because the suitcase is beside them on the ground.

Ben Franklin is an early American who was one smart dude! Not only was he America’s first postmaster, but he was also one of the architects of our democracy, a writer, and a prolific inventor.

Could this be any more adorable? This little girl walked right up to a sculpture of a little boy and gave him a big old kiss right on the lips. These types of photos are all over the internet and they’re one of the things that make the internet such an amazing tool.

This statue is apparently one that people love to pose with as we featured it before with the group of people who looked like they were trying to keep mama from flying away. However, in this post with this unique sculpture, the man appears to be trying to take the little girl for himself.

One of the most iconic movie scenes of all time is when King Kong picks up the lady and gently cradles her as she trembles in fear. In this image, a clever lady riding a bicycle decided to recreate that scene with this sculpture of a mama grizzly bear.

This is a powerful sculpture in its own right. Is it a little girl welcoming her father home from the war? It shows a man kneeling at the height of a child with his arms outstretched. The little girl is running into his arms.

What did this guy do wrong that he’s having to fervently apologize for? This lady looks angry, for sure! Most likely, the lady is staring out to sea waiting for a beloved sailor to return home. Many sailors never made it back and many ladies spent their lives waiting for them.

When it comes to getting the perfect shot, timing is everything. We have a feeling it took several tries to get this perfect shot. The sculpture is located in Niigata City, Japan, and it celebrates a character named Taro Yamada from Dokaben, a popular manga comic.

Spiderman is a tough dude and a true superhero. The great thing about him is that he’s just a teenager who loves science and technology and tries to use his newfound powers to fight evil. But is he a match for the average man?

Most people like eggs in one form or another, whether it’s scrambled eggs, sunny-side-up eggs, or in an omelet. But what would happen if eggs could actually take a bit out of us? This funny post tackles this dilemma head-on (or foot on, as the case may be).

Is this Ronald Regan? It looks like the former actor turned president. However, it could also be just any random businessman in a suit. It’s not clear where this sculpture is located, but it seems to be in a park or a parking lot somewhere. It’s an unusual place for a sculpture.

The ancient man in this sculpture looks like he is in a museum somewhere. Judging from his hair, maybe he’s a sculpture from Ancient Greece, but it’s difficult to say. Regardless, he looks like he’s standing up lecturing someone. Maybe he’s giving a speech.

This is a gorgeous sculpture of someone who looks to be meditating or in prayer. Maybe he’s reading or just contemplating the meaning of life. However, one thing is certain: whenever he actually lived, he probably didn’t have a smartphone.

Keeping pigeons (also called pigeon husbandry) is a popular activity among men in California, so this huge pigeon sculpture may be there. At any rate, this is one big bird, for sure. Maybe it’s going to be part of a movie. It certainly makes The Birds have a new meaning.

It’s no secret that there is a big problem in the United States with how the police handle some issues and even mishandle arrests in many cases. This is a beautiful police sculpture, but these young men used it as a good chance to make a point, and it’s very effective.

Something that makes this sculpture of two men interesting is that it shows two men who are quite rotund. You don’t usually see photos of fat guys. More typically, the people who modeled for ancient sculptures were god-like models with curly hair and a six-pack.

We don’t know what the lady is doing in this sculpture. Maybe combing her hair? Or just pushing her hair out of her face. Whatever she’s up to, she’s absolutely breathtaking and elegant. The man seems to be whispering sweet nothings into her ear.

What’s going on here, 50 Shades of Bronze? Whatever it is, we love it. The young woman took advantage of the pose that the sculpture is in to lay back and pretend to be getting a kiss from the bronze man. But there is a more pressing question.

These young ladies weren’t deliberately posing with this sculpture, but someone captured a cool moment perfectly. The sculpture shows an ancient warrior seated with his spear in the ground. His arm is thrown over the back of the chair.

Here is another example of a sculpture that is in an interesting and unusual pose. What is the point of the man standing there in bronze with his hand down like that? We aren’t sure what the artist intended, but it seems perfect for the pose this guy came along and did.

This is the same sculpture in Japan that we showed another person posing with. Apparently, this is a very popular sculpture to take photos with and there are countless ways to make them funny and cool. When you can capture a memory like this from a museum or place you visit, it helps you to remember the occasion forever.

The Statue of Liberty is one of America’s most iconic symbols. She stands proudly in the New York harbor and welcomes visitors and immigrants to our land. Tons of people have done photos like this to create funny poses with her, but this is one of the best we’ve seen.

We also already featured this sculpture of a lady playing the violin and being followed by several children. However, it seems that there are endless ways to be creative with your children with this sculpture. In this pose, the little boy just got himself in line right behind the little girl.

This guy looks like he’s about to dive in. Maybe this is a sculpture of a famous diver, although they’re not usually naked (famous divers, that is). Or is it a sculpture of someone who is just jumping off the bridge? Either way, it’s probably something with a historical significance.

Ronald McDonald is one of the most enduring icons of advertisement, marketing, and fast food in the world. When a brand can make a part of their advertising a beloved character in any country, they’re doing something right. McDonald’s is famous for unhealthy fast food (they’re trying to do better) but they’re also known as a place that kids love.

We get it, The Leaning Tower of Pisa is not a statue, but come on, the creativity that seems to take people over when they hit this historical landmark is worth dedicating some slides too. We’re wondering how many takes this perfectly timed photo took, but the result was definitely worth it.

In some of these funny sculpture poses, we have to wonder how the people posing got their ideas. This one is very unique and unusual and this guy had a lot of fun with it. The children seem to be playing some version of ring-around-the-rosy, although, like many of these sculptures, there is probably a historical significance.

Whatever your politics, most people agree that former President Barack Obama is a cool dude. Even people who don’t like his politics have been known to play golf or basketball with him. This sculpture shows him sitting on a picnic table park bench enjoying some drinks.

In Japan, Universal Studios constructed this sculpture that serves as an Attack on Titan experience. This allows people who visit the area to have all types of fun with this sculpture. You can imagine just how much fun it is to crawl into the big guy’s mouth or do what these ladies did, and pose in his hand.

Now, this is an interesting sculpture. It looks like the bust of a man is sitting there with his finger pointing as if he’s delivering a speech. What’s going on in this guy’s mind, and what did the artist have in mind? It’s hard to say without knowing where it is and what the sculpture signifies.

This is slightly inappropriate, but oh so hilarious. These sculptures that were created centuries ago are always showing super-fit men, it seems, and this one is no exception. Who can blame the lady for not being able to resist this funny pose? It would be hard to resist the temptation to create something memorable like this.

Everyone loves beer, right? OK, so not everyone. However, the guy in the shades obviously does, and he’s helping this funny-headed man enjoy some brew, too. Why not? Chug away, he seems to be saying.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, wait…no, it really is a bird! A big bird at that. This statue is a larger than life bald eagle and this passerby was ready to pose.

Why do we feel like we can hear this picture? “Shhhh, don’t tell anyone.” But what could the girl possibly be telling the statue not to tell anyone?

Sometimes you just need to get a big old smooch to start your day. This goes a little further than a just a regular kiss, but hey, to each their own.

This is absolutely inappropriate. But come on…it’s also hilarious. I’m sure when the fountain’s architect was thoughtfully creating this beautiful scene they weren’t thinking this is what it was going to be used for.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, or simply, the Tower of Pisa, is the campanile, or freestanding bell tower, of Pisa Cathedral in Central Italy. It is famous for its four degree lean and brings thousands of visitors daily.

This photo also features the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The normal go to pose was clearly not enough for these two characters. They decided to mix it up a bit. 

Sometimes when you’re on vacation you just get so swept up in having a good time. The girl in this photo looks like she was scooped up and swept away mid-walk. Wait a minute…  

The Merlion, which merges the symbol of a fish and a lion, is an unmissable Singapore icon. This guy clearly did not want to miss out on making memories with Merlin and wanted to capture his moment with the landmark perfectly.

Serious question. What came first, the human, or the selfie? Maybe these two were just having a really good hair day and wanted to capture the moment.

We’ve seen a lot of different posing throughout this article, but this one is a, uhhh, shall we say bold choice.

“Did you guys see that, or was it just me?” We’re not sure what these guys are looking for, possibly the mother-ship, or maybe just on the lookout for some really good gas prices.

We’re not going to lie, the woman in this photo doesn’t look too upset about getting in trouble and possibly receiving a punishment.  She even has the “oops I did it again” look down perfectly.

We’re assuming this adorable family planned a nice little outing to a museum. You know, maybe soak in a little bit of the local sights and culture.

This photo leaves a whole other meaning to the phrase “getting hammered.” It looks like these three guys have this lone wolf right where they want him…

This photo looks like it’s a clip right out of The Lion King. We all know the scene, when Mufasa lifts Simba up over Pride Rock and introduces him to the rest of the animal kingdom.

Every person who owns a pet knows the struggle. We just want to love on our babies all the time! This duo captures the moment millions of people experience on the daily, perfectly.

“Yay! You’re home!” It’s almost like you can hear the exchange of this photo just by looking at it.

This posing pair is giving off “Oh my gosh, it’s been so long. Come over here and give me a hug!” feels.

The Charging Bull, sometimes referred to as the Bull of Wall Street or the Bowling Green Bull, is a bronze sculpture that stands on Broadway just north of Bowling Green in the Financial District of Manhattan in New York City. It is a well known landmark and thousands pose with the big guy daily.

This is another one of those “you can hear this picture.” It looks like this guy has had it with this girl’s snarky, teenage-attitude.

We’re thinking these two were having a sweet little family reunion when out of nowhere the one in the hat began to choke!

This is the Centennial Statue from Skagway, Alaska. It depicts a scene that was typical of the start of a prospector’s journey through the small city of Skagway.

So. Many. Questions. Who is this adorable guy holding the laptop? Is he an anteater? What is he looking up on his little computer, Yelp reviews? Why are his sandals so square? Why does the woman posing with him seem not to notice any of these oddities?

There’s something about this photo…I just can’t put my finer on it- see what we did there? We’ve got a lot of questions about the purpose of this statue.

Well first off, this statue must be huge! Look how tiny the woman looks in comparison to him. I’m sure you’re wondering just like we are as to why this “little Miss” is in trouble.

In Chinese culture, Golden dragons are often associated with powerful deities or harvest. Golden dragons symbolize wealth, prosperity, strength, harvest, and power.

These two guys have probably been stuck to this building for a very long time. Can you blame them for sneaking a little peak at whatever is going on inside this window?

Some people are just so quick to anger. This lady looks like she came out on the wrong end of an argument with this statue.

You’ve likely heard of the doctors that come to you, but what about the dentists that sit in wait for your arrival, eager to peer into your (hopefully) clean mouth and offer tips?

One thing we know about Buddha was that he did not want statues made of him to worship. If only he knew what would then become of his statues.

While Buddha had no choice in the matter, this woman seems to have walked into this situation. Well, not seems, as that is quite literally an unmoving object and she can walk away at any time.

We all need someone to lend an ear for our troubles from time to tim. Life can be hard, exhausting, or just plain cruel.

As a statue, it would be very frustrating to have an itch you can’t scratch or be unable to properly clean yourself in a time of need. And someone who isn’t bashful to get into your business.

This man is wearing a shirt that says “Space Is The Place,” however, space does not seem like the place that he wants to exist in.

Strike a pose, ladies. This statue has inspired these women to strut their stuff and pose for the camera. Good lucks!

For shame, this woman said. We aren’t sure exactly what the statues did, but it looks like it was enough to rub this woman the wrong way and earn them a proper scolding.

Does this statue look good on me?  Or is this statue actually me? One of life’s philosophical questions that one must themselves from time to time.

These guys seem to have tapped into their artistic side once they stepped into the museum. How perfect is it that there are five people in this art piece and there are five of them?

Statues like this one, that sit on a bench are just bright, blinking, neon signs, beckoning any passersby to stop and take pictures. They must see it all. Honestly, we have to wonder how many times a day they’re just sitting there minding their own business, when BAM, “say cheese” comes out of a complete stranger’s mouth.

You look at this picture and your first thought is what? 3, 2, 1, GO. Was it “Hulk SMASH”? because, honestly, that’s right where our minds went.

Hockey is not a sport for the weak. It’s one of very few sports that you get chants from fans egging you on to “fight, fight, fight”. Even though goalies tend to be left out of the excitement, it is clear this goalie had, had enough. He clearly felt it was his time to shine and wanted to get in on some of the action his team mates always get. 

This well known statue was commissioned by C & S Bank president, Mills Lane in memory of Tyrus Raymond Cobb (Ty Cobb). Ty Cobb was the first baseball player inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame in 1936.

Ladies, we don’t want to alarm you but we really think it would be wise to get away from those cattle. This silly scene is recreated hundreds of times a day in downtown Dallas, Texas. The piece of artwork is made up of forty-nine bronze steers and three trail riders created by artist Robert Summers. 

You better believe we are going to continue to bring you some of the creative poses we’ve found with The Leaning Tower Of Pisa. Some of these are just too good to pass up. 

The Miss America Pageant is in Atlantic City only once a year, but now visitors to the seaside resort- where the historic Miss America Pageant began- can now have their own crowning moment year-round! 

Taking a second to catch your breath and stepping away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life is not only important, it is self care. This little lady has her priority’s right.

This statue appears to be of a couple sitting on a bench taking in the scenery. It comes off as very tranquil and the backdrop helps set the serene feel. Can anybody blame this little guy for waiting to partake in their peaceful little moment? 

Where are our dog lovers at? We cannot hold back the tears when it comes to this tender moment of a little dog posing in front of the Hachiko monument in Shibuya, Japan. 

This image which seems to be captured at a park of some sort has us wondering who the perpetrator in the situation really is. Was the statue boy trying to get a little handsy? Or was this poor statue boy just out here living his best life when some random lady decided to back up into his personal space? 

This is one we have yet to come across thus far. Imagine this, the table is set, the mood is right, it’s game time! You sit down for a fun game of cards just in time to look up from your perfect hand and you are greeted with an eye full of skeletons.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a, it’s a…wait, what actually is it? If you’re walking down the street and see a group of people with their hand up to their eyes looking in a particular direction it’s almost human nature to stop and do the same exact thing. Right? 

There is nothing better than sporadically busting out some sweet dance choreography in the middle of a busy sidewalk. It’s made even more awesome when you find someone who starts to dance along with you! 

One of the best things to do if you’re ever in Milwaukie, Wisconsin is to walk right along the riverfront. Across from the Rock Bottom Brewery stands the statue of a bronze Fonz (aka Fonzie) from the 1970s TV show Happy Days.

While this horse statue isn’t the biggest one, it was in the middle of nowhere in the vast beauty of San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua. The statue was found near a dirt road that went on for miles until a small, secluded beach appeared.

In northern Canada, there lies the small town of Churchill which is interestingly known as the Polar Bear Capital of the world. The town receives a massive influx of visitors each year to observe the movements of polar bears from their inland hibernation to the shore of the Churchill River. This incredible moment happens between October and November.

These visitors are chilling quite contently by this group of 65 statues located in the Canadian city of Montreal. Sculpted by Raymond Mason, these statues (called The Illuminated Crowd) sit just outside the main gates of McGill University.

Outside a church in Fremantle, Australia, this statue looks as if it’s creating a painting from an invisible model on an empty stool. This man simply couldn’t resist filling in as the model for that day.

Bratislava, Slovakia is a quirky and interesting city filled with odd statues. Some of them are fun, while others are just plain strange!

This statue of a bronze bull (affectionately named “Black Angus”) sits outside of a steakhouse in Tallinn, Estonia, which is located in the Baltics.

Located in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mostar is a beautiful and vibrant city with streets that still bear the visible war-torn scars of its past. This shiny gold statue of Bruce Lee, the legendary kung-fu figure, is standing tall in Zrinjski City Park.

Contemplating the natural joy and peace of the curvature and form of outdoor sculptures is an experience to relish in. Located in Churt, England, the Sculpture Park is a remarkable woodland exhibition that spans 10 acres and also contains water gardens with over 800 modern and contemporary pieces.

Charlie Chaplin was one of the most influential and prolific silent comedic actors of his time. In Ring of Kerry, Ireland, there’s a quiet town called Waterville, which is where this statue of him exists. Chaplin would frequent the town as a vacation spot.
