That Statue, Explained

Thanks to Philip Y., who sent me a link: "Good Defeats Evil" (St. George and the Dragon) - Zurab Tsereteli (USSR - 1990).

If you think the dragon looks strange, it's because it's made from "shards" of two dismantled nuclear missiles, one from the U.S. and one from the former USSR.

We're in a less hopeful era now, but it's a beautiful and moving piece of art.
