Bust of Taras Shevchenko in Simferopol
Bust of Taras Shevchenko in Simferopol, Bronze monument in central Simferopol, Russia.
The bronze bust stands in front of the park arch on Sevastopolskaya Street, portraying the facial features of the Ukrainian literary figure Taras Shevchenko.
The current monument replaced an earlier 1964 sculpture and was installed in 1997 as a gift from the Ivano-Frankivsk region of Ukraine to Simferopol.
The monument represents Ukrainian literature and poetry through Shevchenko's contributions, which addressed themes of freedom and social justice in his works.
The bust location serves as a reference point for navigation through central Simferopol, situated at coordinates 44.934836 North and 34.090294 East.
Following regional changes in 2014, the monument became a focal point for discussions about cultural identity, leading to restricted public gatherings near its location.
