What I can see

It is a bronze sculpture on a marble base, which bears the dedication: “Women of Epirus, surprise of nature, enemy, why didn’t you ask who you are going to conquer”. The sculpture has obvious ethical elements. Its main orientation is monumentality and not artistic elevation.

What I can't see

It is a work by Kostas Domboulas and is dedicated to the women of Epirus during World War II.
