Read the text about a famous Russian monument and choose the right picture to illustrate it.

The Motherland Calls Sculpture

87 metres tall

Volgograd, Mamayev Hill

The monument looks at the Volga River's right bank, where battles for Stalingrad took place. To reach the foot of the monument, visitors must climb 200 steps, symbolising the days of the Battle of Stalingrad.

The sculpture demonstrates a woman with a sword ready to fight. Sculptor Yevgeny Vuchetich explained that she screams: "For the Motherland!"

In 1967, the Motherland Calls Sculpture entered the Guinness World Records as the tallest sculpture in the world. It held this title for over 20 years until Japan built the statue of the goddess Kannon. Today, the Volgograd sculpture is the 11th among the world's giant monuments.
