Мемориалната стена с барелеф на контраадмирал Иван Вариклечков във Варна, България

Мемориалната стена на контраадмирал Иван Вариклечков е построена през 1949 г. За дизайнер на стената е одобрен Киро Янев. Тържественото откриване на Мемориалната стена е на 7 юли 2011 г. по повод 120-годишнината от рождението на контраадмирал Иван Вариклечков.

Средната, извита ниша  на стената е сложна, но компактна композиция от мрамор и бронз, в която доминира усещането за добре разположен цветен и пластичен център. Слабо видимите разлики между цветовете на бронза и мрамора създават усещане за деликатна игра между основните материали, между по-декоративния фон и впечатляващия, макар и доста детайлен, скулптурен образ.

Further information sources

An interesting fact is that Rear Variclechkov has impressed with his honesty and integrity, which brought him a lot of trouble and political chasing. Standing against his government and against even the king, he has sacrificed his brilliant military career and the well-being of his family, but remained true to his true love - his homeland, Bulgaria.
