Monument to Pronya and Golohvastov
Desiatinnaya 12
This sculptural composition is dedicated to main characters of a popular movie Za Dvoma Zaitsiamy (meaning "killing two birds with one stone"), screened in 1961. The enamoured daughter of the well-off parents dreamed to ascend the magnificent staircase leading to the Saint Andrew's Church so that to marry there with her suitor Svyryd Golokhvastov who, in fact, loved another girl that was poor; but he intended to marry a fortune. Starring in this film were the outstanding actors, Margarita Krynytsia and Oleg Borisov. It is they that are depicted in the funny statues created by sculptors V.Shchur and V.Sivko (1999).
