The sculptor Anastasios Giokas created the bronze bust of the actress Elli Lampeti (1926-1983), placed on a marble base. Lampeti is rendered with an expression of gentleness and modesty, as she was in reality. The sculpture has been vandalized several times.
She was among the most important Greek actresses of theatre and cinema. Highlights of her career were her performances in The Glass World, Antigone, A Streetcar Named Desire, Sarah – Children of a Lesser God and in the film The Last Lie for which she was nominated for Best Actress at the BAFTA Awards (British Academy of Film and Television Arts).
