Monument to Sergey Kirov, Bronze monument in Kirov Square, Yekaterinburg, Russia
The statue portrays Sergey Kirov standing on a granite pedestal with marble cladding in front of the main building of Ural Federal University.
The first gypsum monument was installed in 1940, while the current bronze version by sculptor M.G. Pushkin was established in July 1982.
Students gather around the monument during graduation ceremonies, when they dress the figure in academic robes and a mortarboard.
