Reminded me of this, which I saw at the base of a statue in Wales.
Spent a few years thinking it was a beautiful poem.
Nope, just a list of song titles.
Still makes a nice poem, though

Not the best moment to ask I’m afraid Becker Andree. It’s the Motherland Monument commemorating the battle of Stalingrad, in nowadays Volgograd.

Very interesting exhibition of abstract revolutionary Russian art from the early 20th century. Love Kadinsky. But it’s in the Dutch branch of the Hermitage. I’m not going.

Independence Monument, Kyiv (Kiev) Ukraine
From wiki
" Independence Monument is a victory column located on Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Independence Square) in Kyiv and is commemorated to the Independence of Ukraine.[1]
Stylistically it presents a mix of Ukrainian Baroque and Empire style. The monument was built in a compositional center of the square to the 10th Anniversary of the independence of Ukraine in 2001. The monument itself is a column with a figurine of a woman (Berehynia) with guelder-rose branch in her arms. The height of the monument is 61 m (200 ft).[2]
The column is faced with white Italian marble that stands on a pedestal in the form of a Christian temple of Ukrainian Baroque and weighs 20 tonnes."
