Distressed by the theft of the Nose №1, the city authorities decided to install another "Nose of Major Kovalev" in Saint Petersburg. This time, the Nose appeared on the facade of the new exhibition hall of the Museum of Urban Sculpture. This museum is located at 2 Chernoretsky Lane. It was intended that the new bas-relief would be an exact copy of the original.
The sculpture was created by architect and sculptor Vyacheslav Bukhaev. However, the size of this commemorative sign turned out to be smaller. But it has a piquant distinctive feature — a pimple right at the tip. The nose is also made of pink marble, which is no coincidence — the story takes place in March, so the nose is a bit chilled and reddened. And it turned out to be exactly the same nose that once troubled the story’s hero, Major Kovalev, with its presence.
A year after the mysterious disappearance, the original was found, and since then there have been two twin brothers in Saint Petersburg — a pair of almost identical noses. One nose is located on Voznesensky Prospect, and its copy still hangs on the building of the Museum of Urban Sculpture to this day.
