Stake attention in this memory
This is a low-angle, medium shot of a bronze sculpture of a man climbing a ladder to reach a lantern mounted on a pink stucco building. The sculpture is positioned on the side of the building, with the man's body angled towards the viewer and his right arm extended upwards towards the lantern. He is wearing a hat, glasses, a suit jacket, and trousers. He is attached to the building by a ladder that appears to be part of the sculpture. There are two plaques mounted on the building below the sculpture. The upper plaque is rectangular and appears to have text in both Cyrillic and English. The English text reads, "In memory of lamplighter 'Uncle' Kolia, who performed his duties with great dedication over several decades." The lower plaque is smaller and rectangular, also with Cyrillic text. The building has a pale pink, textured stucco facade with horizontal lines. Above the stucco, there is a section of a lighter-colored building with decorative molding. A bright blue sky with a few white clouds is visible in the upper left corner of the image, along with some thin black wires. To the far left, a portion of a balcony railing and an arched doorway are visible. This sculpture is located in Uzhhorod, Ukraine, and it commemorates the lamplighter "Uncle" Kolia.
