On The Shevchenko Monument is a bronze and granite monument of Taras Shevchenko, created by Leo Mol, that was unveiled on 26 June 2011 in Ottawa, Ontario, CAnada.[1]

The composition of the monument includes four items: Taras Shevchenko, and three bas-relief figures complementing the composition. The central monument, sitting on a granite base approximately {{convert|8.5|m|abbr=on}} high, holds a young version of a standing Taras Shevchenko. Dressed in a long coat, the fashion at that time, he holds a palette and three paintbrushes and looks out into the distance. The figure is {{convert|3|m|abbr=on}} high and weighs {{convert|630|kg|abbr=on}}.

Three shorter bases hold artistic creations from his poetry. One of the bas-relief figures, standing {{convert|1.2|m|abbr=on}} and weighing {{convert|156|kg|abbr=on}}, represents Haydamaky (referring to Haidamakas) an epic poem of Shevchenko's about the Cossack paramilitary bands that rose up against the szlachta (Polish nobility) in right-bank Ukraine in the 18th-century.

The next, Kateryna with child ({{convert|1.2|m|abbr=on}}, {{convert|163|kg|abbr=on}}), recalls his early ballad about a Ukrainian girl seduced then abandoned by a Russian - symbolic of the tsarist imposition of serfdom in Ukraine and refers to Shevchenko's painting Kateryna.[2]

The last, Banduryst ({{convert|1.2|m|abbr=on}}, {{convert|156|kg|abbr=on}}), referring to the Kobzar and Bandura,[3] a traditional Ukrainian stringed musical instrument shaped like a lute.

Nearly {{convert|90000|kg|abbr=on}} of Stanstead grey granite from Quebec, was used to create the bases for the monument.[4]

The monument is located the grounds of the Saint John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic Shrine, 952 Green Valley Crescent, Ottawa, Ontario.
