Description
The monument "Good Angel of Peace" - the composition is a three-meter figure of a gilded guardian angel with a dove in his hands, on a six-meter granite column. The angel walking on the hemisphere represents the Earth, and the dove in his hands is a symbol of Peace and Hope. The entire structure is supported by a square pedestal about three meters high, with text carved on all four sides. The classical Roman architectural style was chosen to embody this monumental structure. The angel's image is intended to embody the spiritual bond of generations, a moral example for our contemporaries and descendants.
At the beginning of the new millennium, modern Russian patrons united in a public organization (the "Good Angel of Peace" Foundation) with the main goal of preserving and bringing to future generations the glorious traditions of our great predecessors - benefactors of the past centuries. After all, only by knowing and honoring the history of our Fatherland can we create a worthy foundation for Russia's future. ""Modern patrons, followers and continuers of the wonderful traditions of charity that go back centuries, have united in a public organization - the International Charitable Foundation "Patrons of the Century", to gather under their banners all people living according to the laws of Goodness and Mercy, to glorify their noble work, to give public importance to the status of "patron."
The architectural and park complex "Good Angel of Peace" has become a tribute to the memory and deep reverence of the great patrons of the past. ""One of the most important tasks of the Patrons of the Century Foundation is to create in all cities of Russia and other countries a unique architectural and park complex "Good Angel of Peace", designed to preserve for centuries the names of people who, through their selfless impulse, influenced the development of civilization and those who continue their work today, to embody the spiritual bond of peoples and generations.
"The monument" was unveiled on June 28, 2008, as part of the "Good Angel of Peace" project, implemented by the International Charitable Foundation "Patrons of the Century". Then he was the 15th on the planet.
On the front side there is a text about the composition itself. The names of the authors of the artistic concept of the complex are also carved here: O.V. Oleinik, president of the International Union of Charitable Organizations "The World of Good" and Honored Artist of Russia P.T. Stronsky, president of the International Academy of Culture and Art. On the back of the pedestal, under the title "Orenburg patrons of the Centuries", are the names of benefactors of the past. On the sides of the base there are words of gratitude for financial support, assistance in the construction and creation of a complex with a list of organizations, institutions and names of individuals. In front of the pedestal is a stylized image in the form of an unfolded book with the inscription: "The Golden Book of Nations." According to a good tradition, the Golden Book of Nations with the names of all the good people who participated in this project was laid at the base of the complex.
