Cossack horseman's muscles

This is the statue where I met Ewan McGregor! ;)

It's stunningly impressive, two riders on horseback stretching out right across the road (some way after Lvov, heading east for Kiev.)

You gape in wonderment that the Soviet bolts (connected only at the rearmost hooves) are still holding. Then gape again when you see the detail of the panel-beating.
