Bust of Lenin, Bronze monument in Cavriago, Italy.
The bronze bust stands on a concrete pedestal in Lenin Square, measuring approximately two meters in height including its base.
Created in 1922 in the Soviet Union, the monument arrived in Cavriago in 1970 as part of a twinning agreement with the Moldavian city of Bendery.
The monument represents the strong connection between Cavriago and socialist ideals, as the town supported the October Revolution during the early 20th century.
The square around the monument serves as a meeting point for guided tours exploring the political and artistic heritage of Reggio Emilia province.
This bronze sculpture remains one of the few public monuments to Lenin that existed in Western Europe during the Cold War period.
