Monument to Nikolay Chernyshevsky, Bronze monument at Pokrovskiye Vorota Square, Moscow, Russia.
The sculpture portrays Nikolay Chernyshevsky seated on a bench, wearing traditional clothing and round glasses, positioned on a black granite pedestal.
The monument was inaugurated on June 24, 1988, marking the 160th anniversary of Chernyshevsky's birth, during a period of significant social changes in Russia.
The monument represents Chernyshevsky as a philosopher rather than a revolutionary, reflecting his influence on Russian intellectual and literary development.
Four vintage-style lanterns illuminate the circular stone-paved area surrounding the monument, making it accessible for evening visits.
The bronze figure sits against a semicircular granite wall with metal mooring rings, creating an architectural ensemble in the urban landscape.
