In Statue of Metallurgist Anosov, Zlatoust, how is the History of creation discussed?
The construction of the monument began with the decision of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union to commemorate Anosov Pavel Petrovich. On 15 November 1948, the Chairman of Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin signed the Decree № 4229: "About the perpetuation of the memory of the great Russian metallurgist Pavel Petrovich Anosov". The first paragraph of the decreed refers to the construction of the monument of Anosov in Zlatoust. The dream of P.P. Anosov, grandson of N.A. Yanovskiy, which had been voiced half century ago, became a reality.From the beginning to end, the process of creating a new monument was coordinated by the deputy mayor of the city, D.Z. Istomin, along with many organizations and experts who were also involved. The metallurgists of the Southern Ural organized a conference in Zlatoust in September 1949, in which the employees of metallurgical enterprises, research and educational institutions, representatives of Moscow, Leningrad, Sverdlovsk and other industrial centers of the country took part. The conference was devoted to the 150th anniversary of Anosov's birthday, and the reports mostly described his achievements and creative heritage. On the second day, 11 September, the participants at the conference attended the city meeting on the occasion of discussion of the future monument "bookmark". A concrete marker- an obelisk with the inscription: "Here will be constructed a Statue of the Great Russian Metallurgist P.P. Anosov," was installed on the same place where the present Statue was later erected. One week later, the "bookmark" was included in the list of the city historical monuments.On 25 May 1951, to mark the 100th anniversary of P.P. Anosov's death, a memorial plaque was posted on the facade of the city history museum, the house in which Anosov lived for many years. It is one of three plaques affixed to the building.The sculpture's bronze castings were made by the "Монумент-скульптура" plant (English: Monument-sculpture) in Leningrad. The granite pedestal was made in Mytishchi.According to the Resolution № 1327 of the Council of Ministers of RSFSR dated 30 August 1960, the Statue of Metallurgist Anosov was taken under protection as a monument of national importance and republican values.
