A. P. Platonov haykali

The A. P. Platonov monument is a bronze statue of the Soviet writer located on Revolution Prospect in Voronezh. The figure wears a long coat with hands in pockets and stands on a pedestal made of dark marble tiles.

The monument was created by sculptors Ivan Dikunov and Elza Pak and inaugurated on September 11, 1999. The dedication took place on what would have been Platonov's 100th birthday.

The pedestal displays Russian inscriptions, including a quote from one of Platonov's characters about the writer's importance to the nation. These words on the base immediately tell visitors why this person mattered to people.

The monument is located at 24 Revolution Prospect in central Voronezh and is easily accessible on foot or by public transport. The small square around the statue is open at all times.

The statue's design emphasizes the flowing movement of the coat tails while subtle facial features reflect the writer's reserved nature. This contrast between dynamic clothing and calm expression gives the work visual depth.
