Red “Fallen Angel” sculpture in Paleo Faliro fell overnight! (photos)

The sculpture named “Phylax” caused a backlash

Newsroom January 18 08:24

A sculpture called “Phylax” located in the municipality of Paleo Faliro that had caused quite the controversy was found on the ground. The reason the sculpture was off its base has not yet been determined, and despite the initial reports that it was due to the strong winds, Mayor Dionysis Chatzidakis alleged it was deliberately knocked down by people. The sculpture had caused a backlash when Christian groups protested against it dubbing it the fallen angel. The sculpture depicts a red headless creature with angelic wings.
