I have posted many photos of the amazing sculptures of Jeddah, so for those of you interested in just the sculptures, I've collected the links for them here on one easy page, although it is difficult to keep it updated all the time - so another easy way to see just the sculptures is just type "sculpture" into the Search box of this blog.
Many of these sculptures have been moved from their previous locations in older photos or have just disappeared now, due to the dismantling of many of Jeddah's traffic circles where many of the sculptures used to be found.
The harsh Jeddah climate has also destroyed some of the sculptures that were made of materials that just couldn't tolerate the severe elements of the heat and sand in the atmosphere. So sadly, some of the sculptures I have featured no longer exist.
Clicking on the link takes you to the actual post with any information I might have about the piece of art itself.
Clicking on the thumbnails below enlarges the photo only, but there are not thumbnails for each sculpture. Enjoy!
If you're interested in seeing SLIDESHOWS of many more of the photos I have taken of the sculptures of Jeddah, just click on the Slideshow links immediately below. The Slideshows not only include the artwork I have featured on this blog, but also many more photos of these and other sculptures taken from different angles and different times of day. The slideshows are just the photos with no commentary. Here are the slideshow links:

Thank you for these photos. My dear friend moved to Jeddah last month. When she shares her adventures I do not have an accurate image. This is wonderful!
