Antony Gormley's monumental sculpture emerged from the landscape in 1998 after three years of meticulous engineering and construction. Commissioned by Gateshead Council with ?800,000 of National Lottery funding, this 200-ton steel structure symbolizes Northeast England's transition from industrial past to creative future. The angel's astonishing 54-meter wingspan exceeds a Boeing 767's width, while its 20-meter height creates a commanding silhouette against changing skies. Constructed from weather-resistant corten steel that develops a protective rust layer, the sculpture changes appearance with atmospheric conditions. Viewpoints include the main viewing platform, surrounding hills offering different perspectives, and approach roads where the figure appears to watch over travelers?creating powerful impressions throughout the day and in various weather conditions.
