Monument to Vladimir Vysotsky in Samara, Bronze monument near Sports Palace in Samara, Russia.
This monument portrays the artist in Hamlet's costume at roughly 5 meters tall, surrounded by symbolic figures representing death, love, and authority through prison bars. The composition brings together several artistic elements that express different aspects of his life and career.
The monument was created to commemorate the artist's unexpected performance at the Sports Palace in 1967, when he performed before about 6,000 people. This event became a defining moment in the venue's history, leading to the facility being named after him years later.
The Sports Palace bears the artist's name as a tribute to his unexpected visit, and the monument's figures reflect his impact through symbolic representations. Visitors can see Marina Vlady depicted with a book and other elements that speak to his artistic legacy and influence.
The monument is located on Molodogvardeyskaya Street directly in front of the Sports Palace, making it easy to visit when exploring the area. You can view it comfortably during daylight hours when all the bronze details and symbolic elements are clearly visible.
The bronze wall of the monument features an engraved acknowledgment to Konstantin Titov, the regional leader who initiated its construction. This inscription is an often-overlooked detail that connects local political history with the artistic tribute.
