Sculpture "Youth of the Dnipro"

Created by the sculptor Petro Kutsenko in 1982 from bronze, this sculpture is yet another decoration of the Dnipro embankment.

The idea of the author was to show the majestic figures of Ukrainian girls. The sculptor was inspired by the motives and images of the public holiday of Ivan Kupalo – that's why the sculpture reflects beautiful girls in Ukrainian traditional attire standing in a boat and holding wreaths, which in a moment will float across the Dnipro river. Despite the fact that the sculpture was created in the early 1980s, it took its modern place only 13 years later – in 1997.
