Independence Monument is a victory column located on Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Independence Square) in Kiev and is commemorated to the Independence of Ukraine.[1]
Stylistically it presents a mix of Ukrainian Baroque and Empire style. The monument was built in a compositional center of the square to the 10th Anniversary of the independence of Ukraine in 2001. The monument itself is a column with a figurine of a woman (Berehynia) with guelder-rose branch in her arms. The height of the monument is 61 m (200 ft).[2]
As a model of the Berehynia statue, the author Anatoliy Kushch chose his daughter, American artist Christina Katrakis. The statue is made of a cast bronze and weighs about 20 tons.
The column is faced with white Italian marble that stands on a pedestal in the form of a Christian temple of Ukrainian Baroque.
During the 2013 Euromaidan events, riot police inhumanely used force against students that drove mass demonstrations the very next day.

Hey Aero, what’s the best way to reach you?
thank you so much! and just to be clear – there are more partners in the project: Vice Media, Unesco and poly.cam for the technical side. I'm assuming either can sign? you can reach all partners at backupukraine@vice.com.
Thank you!
@aero3d.ua no problem — is there an email we can write to?
@BackupUkrain Hi there! We need to sign documents with the CEO of poly.cam!
Incredible quality! We're creating Backup Ukraine — a digital archive of Ukraine's heritage — with Unesco and Blue Shield Denmark. Would it be possible to get permission to use your file (with proper accreditation, of course) in our tutorial video material? You can read about the project at poly.cam/ukraine.
