What I can see
Volumes and surfaces compose a 2.3m high abstract work. It is placed on a low pedestal of gray marble and among thick bushes, which make it less visible. On the back side, the letter Z is engraved and is the initial of the sculptor’s last name. The municipality of Athens, the place, the date and the title “Composition”, which is different from the official title “Delphi”, are written on the front side.
What I can't see
It was created by Giorgos Zongolopoulos and he participated in the 1964 Venice Biennale with it.
