Mikhail Bulgakov Monument, Bronze monument at Andriivskyi Descent, Kyiv, Ukraine.

The bronze statue portrays Mikhail Bulgakov sitting on a bench with crossed legs near the museum dedicated to his literary works.

Inaugurated in October 2007, this monument stands as the first public sculpture worldwide dedicated to the author of The Master and Margarita.

The statue creates a physical connection between Bulgakov's literature and Andriivskyi Descent, which features prominently in his novel The White Guard.

Visitors can reach the monument by taking the metro to Golden Gate or Marketplace stations and walking through the historic district.

The sculptor Mykola Rapay based the statue's expression on a single photograph where Bulgakov displays a smile among numerous solemn portraits.
