A bas-relief of Joseph Stalin surrounded by workers and children has been unveiled after restoration in the passage of Taganskaya metro station, TASS wrote on May 15.
The bas-relief was originally located at the end of the station, but it was lost during construction of the transfer to the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya line.
The sculptural composition had to be reconstructed using photographs and archival documents.
The bas-relief is dedicated to the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. At the center of the composition is Soviet leader Joseph Stalin, surrounded by workers and children handing him bouquets of flowers. Above Stalin’s head is a bas-relief of Lenin.
The sculpture was recreated in honor of the 90th anniversary of the Moscow Metro.
