Monument opened May 7, 2016. This is the first in Ukraine monument to veterans of World War II.
The sculpture is set by the initiative group of Kiev, with the support of TV channel "Inter" and the Organization of Veterans of Ukraine as a remembrance and gratitude to all those who defended our country in that terrible war.
Sculptural bronze composition consists of two figures - male and female - and represents the meeting of two veterans, past the Great Patriotic War. The image of the characters of the sculptural composition "People Victory" - a collective. But he has real prototypes: they have become a pilot, Hero of the Soviet Union Ivan Selifonov and gunner-radio operator Anna Fyodorovna Kolomeitseva.
Sculptor Alexander Morgatsky worked on the composition of two months. "The figures are life-size, this is a relatively small height of the monument - that we were closer to each other", - says the sculptor.
