A bronze statue of Colonel Nikita Fedorovich Karatsupa, Hero of the Soviet Union, and his German Shepherd-type border guard dog is captured in a daytime, eye-level shot within the Park of Courage (Парк Отваги) in Tyumen, Russia. The statue, rendered in a uniform bronze finish, depicts Karatsupa standing upright, wearing a military-style uniform with a cap, shirt, trousers, and boots. Binoculars are suspended from his neck, and a rifle or staff is held vertically in his right hand. His left hand holds a leash connected to the dog, which stands at his left side, facing forward. The entire sculpture rests on a rectangular pedestal constructed from light-colored stone. Affixed to the front face of the pedestal is a dark rectangular plaque bearing white Cyrillic text that identifies the subject as "ГЕРОЙ СОВЕТСКОГО СОЮЗА полковник КАРАЦУПА НИКИТА ФЕДОРОВИЧ 25.04.1910. – 18.11.1994" (Hero of the Soviet Union Colonel Karatsupa Nikita Fedorovich 25.04.1910. – 18.11.1994). The plaque details his military service, including his role as a border guard, his capture of numerous border violators, saboteurs, and spies, his training of service dogs, and his burial in the Proskurovsky cemetery in Moscow. A black and white QR code on a small black plate is attached to the right side of the pedestal. At the base of the statue, on the pedestal, are multiple bouquets of artificial flowers, including red and yellow tulips and red poppies. In the midground, to the left of the statue, a large grey horizontal sign with the white Cyrillic word "ОТВАГА" (COURAGE) marks an entrance or feature of the park. A paved pathway of light grey rectangular tiles extends from the foreground past the monument. Three individuals are partially visible near the base of the statue: one person in a grey jacket and blue jeans, carrying red flowers, walks away from the statue; another person in a green shirt is partially obscured behind the first; and a third person in a red top is further back. The background consists of a dense line of green deciduous trees to the left, and a tall, slender conifer tree to the right, with additional evergreen shrubs at its base. A dark green metal fence or barrier is visible further to the right. The sky overhead is partly cloudy, with scattered white cumulus clouds. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight, casting shadows from the statue onto the paved pathway. in Tyumen, Russia
