Monument to the Sweet Tooth

Sweet-toothed babies, Monument to Lasunam
Ukraine, Sumy
Monument to the Sweet Tooth - the sculpture "Sweet Tooth Babies" was installed in 2007, on the occasion of the 355th anniversary of the city of Sumy, on Voskresenskaya Street. The monument, created by sculptors Oleg Prokopchuk and Vladimir Bukov, is a composition of two bronze figures: a boy on a chair eating sugar from a bag, and a girl standing next to another chair. Any passer-by can sit on a free chair and take a picture. The monument is a tribute to the family of sugar refiners Kharitonenko, thanks to which the city of Sumy flourished in the 19th century. At the end of Voskresenskaya Street, on Pokrovskaya Square, another monument was erected in honor of Kharitonenko - refined sugar.

The sculpture "Sweet Tooth Babies" was installed in 2007 in memory of the Kharitonenko family's sugar industry, which ensured the prosperity of the city in the 19th century. The monument was created by sculptors O. Prokopchuk and V. Bukov. A bronze boy on a chair eats sugar from a bag, and a girl stands nearby. Anyone can become the third, sitting on a free chair. For some reason, this monument was especially fond of the vandals. First, the hooligans tried to loosen and drag the girl away, a little later - the boy.
