"With A BRAVE VICTORY" (the real name of this art object). Not an artilleryman, but a BRAVE HUSSAR stands at the cannon, twirls his moustache and holds a forged rose. It is quite realistic and, in our layman's opinion, quite detailed. The author of the pretty and interesting monument is the famous sculptor Vladimir Kanonik, who became famous for his fantastic works of metal and mechanisms. More than four dozen of his sculptures diversify the landscape at the Belorusneft gas stations (?!) all over the country. A hussar appeared in the Botanical Garden in the summer of 2022 at the suggestion of the chairman of the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences, Vladimir Gusakov, and cost the NAC 20 thousand Br (about 600 thousand Russian rubles, mere pennies by the standards and customs of today's Sobyanin Moscow). The sculpture, as declared, is made in the steampunk style of TN; but, fortunately, from this performance style of the "tin lumberjacks" it seems to have only different components. (Somewhere here there are forging, welding, and composite materials. The cannon, for example, is made of sheet metal, the wheels are welded with high–precision argon welding, and the hussar figure itself is made of composite materials. There are, as they say, even parts from Soviet cars). We couldn't find any wheels, nuts, screws, or other hardware, fasteners, or trench tools on a cursory inspection. That's why we looked at and admired the hussar costume and ammunition, as well as the artillery piece. As well as the masculine beauty, courage and dashing spirit of our glorious ancestors expressed in this monument. Which he is, in fact, a reminder of."Yes, there were people in our time, Not like the current tribe: The heroes are not you!". Let's agree with the classic here. It's a shame, but it's probably fair. We recommend it. (Note: the text uses the materials of the resource tochka.by )
