Neuf lignes obliques is a steel monument on the Promenade des Anglais, by French artist Bernar Venet. It was commissioned to mark the 150th anniversary of the 1860 annexation of the County of Nice by France.
The sculpture is made of nine steel beams, 30 metres long, which meet at their top. As the name implies the beams are inclined at an oblique angle. The sculpture is made of 65 tonnes of corten steel, set on a 130 tonne concrete foundation.
Neuf lignes obliques is between the George Pompidou esplanade, a square on the south side of Vieux-Nice, and the Promenade des Anglais on Nice's Mediterranean coast.
