Monument to Matvei Platov, Bronze and marble monument in Novocherkassk, Russia.
The monument depicts Matvei Platov wearing a general uniform, carrying a baton in one hand and a sword in the other standing on a pedestal.
Dedicated in 1853 to commemorate the centenary of Matvei Platov's birth, the monument underwent removal in 1923 and restoration in 1993 with a new sculpture.
The inscription on the pedestal reads 'To Ataman Count Platov for military achievements from 1770 to 1816 from grateful Don residents'.
The monument stands in front of the Ataman Palace in the center of Novocherkassk, next to the Don Polytechnic Institute buildings.
Swedish artist Karl Mazer created a painting depicting the original monument's inauguration ceremony, which included 101 artillery salutes.
