In the photo you can see what the central platform of this summer garden looked like in 1957.

A lot of water has flowed down the Fontanka, Moika and Neva since that time. The sculpture was transferred to the First Summer Garden in the late 1950s, and the site was empty. And again the question:

WHAT SCULPTURE DO YOU WANT TO INSTALL ON ETOUAL IN THE 40S OF THE XX CENTURY?

The answer is posted in the comments. For those who have watched the record of the excursion around the Summer Garden, answering this question will not be difficult.
