The image displays an outdoor collection of dismantled Soviet-era statues and busts, situated within an overgrown, informal display area near the National Expocenter of Ukraine (VDNKH) on Akademika Hlushkova Avenue in Kyiv, Ukraine. The scene is illuminated by daylight under a clear blue sky with scattered white clouds.

Dense green foliage, consisting of large deciduous trees and various shrubs, partially obscures the collection. In the foreground, a path composed of red brick pavers transitions into a dirt and gravel surface.

The collection includes at least seven distinct sculptures. Among them are multiple busts of male figures, prominently featuring representations consistent with Vladimir Lenin, distinguished by their facial features. These busts vary in material appearance, from light grey or white stone/concrete to darker metallic or patinated finishes, and some are partially embedded within or surrounded by dense green undergrowth. A full-body, standing statue of a male figure, appearing to be bronze or golden-colored, is positioned in the mid-ground. This figure is depicted in a suit with his right hand slightly raised. Additional busts include an older male figure with a beard on the far left, and a classical-style bust on the far right. The sculptures are arranged on an elevated, unkempt mound of earth and vegetation. A light-colored building facade is partially visible through the trees in the background. No individuals are present within the frame.
