The monument is a 5-ton massive bronze sculpture composition.[1] The monument is designed in the style of a city sculpture. The small pedestal slightly rises above the street level. The pedestal is built into a low four-step ladder, which leads to the platform. Ataman Yefremov sits on a trophy cannon, the cossack keeps the flag flying. Other sculptures bower over raised plan of the fortress.[2]
Some of the locals criticized the composition for this scene has nothing to do with Rostov-on-Don. The project of the fortress was not discussed. The fortress was designed in Saint-Petersburg by engineer Vendeev and adjusted several times, maybe with the participation of A. Rigelman. Rigelman arrived on the Almighty Don Host as a construction engineer, who was required to put into effect introduced the plan of the fortress. He had not authority to discuss with someone else this project.[3]
