The large-scale commemorative environment includes the "Motherland Mother" commemorative landscape sculpture built by the former Soviet Union to commemorate the victory of the anti-fascist war and the famous Stalingrad bloody war. Memorial landscape sculptures are not necessarily large, but smaller ones are more common.
