Дерево жизни, Bronze monument near Art Gallery, Moscow, Russia
The Tree of Life is a bronze sculpture in Moscow where branches and patterns represent growth and connection through detailed metalwork. The sculpture's design shows fine details that become clearer in daylight.
The sculpture was created in 2007 by Zurab Tsereteli, a known artist who left many public works throughout Moscow. Its creation came during a period when the city invested more in art installations.
The monument draws people together as a gathering spot, especially during Moscow's celebrations when performances and community events happen around its base. This role has made it part of the city's public life.
The monument is accessible throughout the year and best viewed during daylight hours between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM. The bronze details show clearest during these hours with natural light.
Visitors leave written notes between the bronze leaves, a custom that has grown since the sculpture was installed. This personal gesture has turned the monument into a place where people share their thoughts.
