Lyadsky gates, Kiev
Lyadskiy gates - one of the main features on Independance square in Kiev.
They were restorated in 2001 and placed very close to area where remains of ancient gates which was made with wood were found.
During times of Kievan Rus Lyadsky gates were separating Old town from outskirts.
In 2002 on the top of gates was erected a monument of Archangel Michel who is a heavenly protector of city Kiev.
Since the monument was erected there were many disputes about black color ofsculpture, definite gender (according to Christianity angels don't have gender) and small wings.
But the author of sculpture thinks that those arguments are baseless.
What do you think about it?
