Taras Shevchenko monument, Bronze monument in Moscow, Russia.
The bronze statue stands on a granite pedestal at the intersection of Ukrainskiy Boulevard and Kutuzovsky Prospekt, depicting Shevchenko in traditional attire.
The monument was inaugurated in March 1964 to commemorate the 150th birth anniversary of Taras Shevchenko, the Ukrainian national poet and artist.
The memorial represents the strong literary connections between Ukrainian and Russian cultures through the figure of Shevchenko, who wrote poetry in both languages.
The monument serves as a meeting point near Kievskaya Metro Station, accessible through three different metro lines connecting central Moscow.
The pedestal contains soil from Shevchenko's burial site in Kaniv, Ukraine, transported to Moscow during the monument's construction.
