Надгробный памятник Якубу Коласу, Granite tombstone in Military cemetery, Minsk, Belarus
The memorial features a 4-meter tall granite block with irregular edges, displaying a sculptural portrait of the writer in its upper section.
The monument was installed in 1970 at the burial site of Belarusian literature classic Yakub Kolas, who lived from 1882 to 1956.
The monument serves as a representation of Belarusian literary heritage, registered in the State List of Historical and Cultural Values of Belarus.
The monument combines architectural and sculptural forms with different stone textures, from matte light-gray surfaces to darker rough splits.
The lower section of the granite block contains Yakub Kolas's facsimile signature and presents a smooth surface contrasting with the upper textures.
