Monument of monumental art. Order of the ICMS dated 02/10/2020 No. 630. Security number 3140-Sm. A concrete bust on a granite pedestal is installed in the Hero's homeland. The Hero's bust is cut off at the shoulders, placed on a high rectangular pedestal. The frontality of the bust is slightly disturbed by the three-quarter turn of the head to the right, the horizontal lines of the pedestal by the asymmetry of the shoulders, which gives the sculpture dynamics. The clear structure of the head, the distribution of masses and the laconic outline of the main forms create a complete image.
