Literary Monuments
One of the most prominent figures of Ukrainian culture is the well-known Taras Shevchenko, the renowned poet who’s likeness is cast in dozens of monuments throughout the country. Three other well-known figures are tucked in Kyiv’s streets, but there are the only physical manifestations of them aside from printed word. They are the creations of two Ukrainian writers of fiction, cast in metal to represent the characters who tickled the imagination of millions of readers from the former Soviet Union and modern Ukrainian and Russian speaking people.
