Памятник Сталину, Socialist monument in Bratislava, Slovakia.
The Stalin Monument consisted of a large statue positioned on Stalin Square, displaying the leader in a characteristic stance with military attire.
The monument was erected in 1949 to commemorate Stalin's 70th birthday, following his honorary citizenship of Bratislava granted in 1946.
Sculptor Pavol Ban created this work following socialist realism principles, emphasizing functional elements in collaboration with Jozef Mazan.
The monument remained in its original location until 1956, when authorities moved it to the National Gallery storage facility.
From June to October 2012, the statue appeared temporarily at Ludovit Stur Square during an exhibition of Slovak socialist realist art.
