The myth of Pygmalion and Galatea

Pygmalion was a young man living alone in Amathus working as a sculptor. One night Aphrodite took the form of a beautiful woman and appeared in his dream. When Pygmalion awoke, he remembered the dream and began to carve this face. He made an ivory statue and fell so in love with it that he prayed to the goddess Aphrodite to bring it to life. Aphrodite was moved and did him a favor. When Pygmalion returned home, he found the statue alive. He named this woman Galatea and asked her to marry him. Galatea married her creator and they had a daughter whom they named Paphos.

Το 1864 φεύγοντας οι Άγγλοι ,πήραν το άγαλμα της Βρετανίας - γυναίκας.

In this book, I will explain you why the island of Corfu is represented by the specific symbol that we find on the pediment of the Palace of Arch. Michael and Saint George
Three main elements stand out in the emblematic symbol of the island.

Μόνο με γυναικεία ομορφιά και χάρη θα μπορούσε να συμβολιστεί το νησί της Κέρκυρας. Συγγραφείς, ποιητές, στρατιώτες και πολιτικοί, ταξιδιώτες και εξερευνητές, βασιλιάδες και αυτοκράτορες κυριεύτηκαν από τη χάρη και την ομορφιά του μαγευτικού νησιού και σκόρπισαν τη φήμη του στα πέρατα της γης.

The young woman in her right hand holds the "horn of amalthea" which is the symbol of abundance and wealth.

The legend of  Ploieşti (the rainy) city

The legend says that a long time ago, around 1400 A.H., before the foundation of the Romanian Country, in a clearing of Vlasiei Forest, a shepherd lived, named Mos Ploae (The Old Rain), together with his seven sons. Having rich grass for sheep and fertile land for agriculture, the shepherd decides to stay with his family and builds houses for himself and his sons. Once the houses were built, a settlement was formed which was given its name.

Along with Paris and New York, Ploiesti was among the few cities in the world in the 19th century that had a Statue of Liberty. Inaugurated in 1881, it is one of the most representative monuments of Ploieşti, a symbol of the past and an element of identity.

The statue, made from national public subscription funds, was made in France, in Paris, by the sculptor L. Quadry, and was brought to the country in 1876. It is 3.5 m high and represents the goddess Minerva, holding in the right hand a spear, and in the left a parchment on which is written "Constitution and electoral law", which suggests that freedom sometimes needs a fight to be defended.
