In this suburb, which remains a major centre for Sydney’s Greek community, the legacy of the classical world is clearly alive and well. The public presentation of the statue however raised new questions about the relevance of classical Greek iconography in the 21st century. Using Sydney war memorials as a case study, the paper revisits the relevance of classical architecture, iconography and ideals in the immediate post WWI era in Australia. Fast forward one hundred years, the contributors examine the continuing legacy of classical Greek iconography to 21st-century Australians through an analysis of Darien Pullen’s Winged Victory. The paper aims to highlight the continuities and discontinuities of this seemingly foreign artistic vocabulary and offer insight into its on-going and perhaps profound significance to Australians who fought at Gallipoli. The geographical proximity of that most famous Anatolian battle, the Trojan War, commemorated in Homer’s epic, the Iliad, may hold the key to its meaning.
