Grigorios Zeugoles

Gregorios Zevgolis (; Athens, 1886 – Athens, 20 February 1950) was a Greek sculptor and painter, originating from Naxos.

Biography He studied from 1903 to 1908 at the Higher School of Fine Arts of Athens with teachers Nikiforos Lytras in painting and Georgios Vroutos in sculpture. He continued his studies at the Académie Julian at Paul Landowski's side and the École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris.

In 1911, on his return to Athens, he opened a workshop with Nikolaos Lytras at 21 Epirou Street, near the National Archaeological Museum of Greece. Zevgolis is one of the most prominent representatives of Rodin and post-Rodin sculpture in Greece, which uses data from Rodin sculpture with symbolic realism.

Zevgolis was one of the most productive Greek sculptors of the interwar period. Among others, he painted the Heroes of Keratea (1916), Mytilene (1919) and Giannitsa

Another well-known work is the Statue of Liberty in Mytilene. This statue represents the Winged Time, and at his feet the mother Greece, having embraced her son, a killed soldier. It is located at the eastern entrance of the city by Egnatia Street (at coordinates ).
