View of the monument to the Russian writer Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol (1809-1852) in Moscow, Russia. It was erected in 1909 on Prechistensky Boulevard, but its style proved to be controversial because of its rather negative body language, and in the 1950s it was moved to Nikitsky Boulevard, and installed outside the house where Gogol lived. On the pedestal can be seen a bas relief of characters from Gogols stories. Date: circa 1909

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the monument to the renowned Russian writer Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol (1809-1852), located in Moscow, Russia. Erected in 1909 on Prechistensky Boulevard, the monument's unique style was met with controversy due to the hunched, pensive, and mournful demeanor of the statue. The negative body language of the monument was particularly unfavorable during the Soviet era in the USSR. The monument was later moved to Nikitsky Boulevard and installed outside the house where Gogol once lived. At the base of the monument, a bas relief depicts characters from Gogol's stories, adding a touch of intrigue and depth to the already captivating sculpture. The young boy in the photograph, standing in front of the monument, seems to be taking in the doom-laden atmosphere of the statue, his expression reflecting a sense of awe and reverence. The monument's controversial style, with its scary and ominous features, only adds to the intrigue and mystery surrounding the works of this great Russian writer. This photograph is a captivating glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Moscow and Russia, offering a glimpse into the past while also highlighting the enduring legacy of Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol's literary contributions.
