Statue of Nizami Ganjavi, Bronze monument in Moscow, Russia.

The bronze Statue of Nizami Ganjavi stands 6 meters tall, featuring the Persian poet holding a book in traditional regal attire.

The monument was established in 1991 to commemorate Nizami Ganjavi, a 12th-century poet known for his narrative works including Khosrow and Shirin.

The statue incorporates architectural elements from Azerbaijani design of Nizami's period, with ornamental carvings enhancing the monument's appearance.

Located at coordinates 55°45'36.40"N, 37°36'18.65"E, the statue serves as a meeting point for cultural gatherings and educational events in Moscow.

The monument mirrors a similar statue erected in Baku in 1949, creating a connection between two major tributes to the Persian literary figure.
