Description
The sculpture called Eva by Grigorios Zevgolis, a nude female figure commissioned by the Pikionis family, was moved in 1972 from Rostan (now Nikolopoulou) Square (in Kypriadou) to Kypseli Square after opposition from local residents, only to be returned to its original location in 1995 at the request of the local cultural society.
