22. Die Badende, Germany

This giant sculpture in Hamburg Germany really makes waves. Die Badende, in English “The Bather”, is a humorous giant sculpture by German artist Oliver Voss and is now said to be located in Binnenalster Lake. Made of steel and foam, it is roughly 13 feet tall between 67 and 99 feet in length.

It weighs over two tons. The work shows a woman’s knees and head poking out of the water. In 2011 it was briefly on display in Inner Alster Lake. Intended to be an advertisement for the Brit beauty business Soap & Glory, it promoted the so-called “art” of bathing thus making the body of water the biggest bathtub on the planet.
