Monument to Mikhail Sholokhov
bull. Gogolevsky, Moscow, Russian Federation
Description:
The monument to Mikhail Sholokhov was erected in 2007 (sculptor I. Rukavishnikov). What does the monument look like and what is its meaning?
The monument is a boat in which Sholokhov himself sits. And he goes down the river and meets a herd of horses. They rush forward to split the boat in two. According to commentators, Russia is split into white and red.
Why was this place chosen? The writer looks at the street Sivtsev Vrazhek. But only ardent fans of the fan know that Sholokhov lived at Sivtsev Vrazhek, house number 63. By the way, there is a memorial plaque.
How do I get there? The idea of the monument appeared long before this idea was realized. As a result, Sholokhov settled on the slope of Gogol Boulevard, the Transagency stop.
Sometimes you can catch the moment when the monument turns into a fountain and then the horses swim.
