Vechnaya Slava, War memorial in Syktyvkar, Russia.
Bronze sculptures of three women at Karl Marx Street depict a soldier's wife, daughter, and mother paying tribute at an eternal flame.
The memorial, inaugurated in August 1981, commemorates 5,693 soldiers from Syktyvkar who lost their lives during World War II.
The central figure holds a cedar branch with ribbons, standing near aluminum plates that display names of fallen soldiers and those missing in action.
The memorial complex includes defensive barrier replicas and contains sealed volumes of the Republic of Komi Memory Book for future generations in 2045.
Local residents nicknamed the monument 'Women Roasting a Crocodile' because from certain angles, the wreath resembles an amphibian with its mouth and tail.
