Photo taken during my visit to Naxos in 2001. The statue is in Naxos Town (Hora) which is the port. The main thoroughfare is also named after him.

        America from the village of Apiranthos in 1913. His maternal great 
        uncle, Petros Protopapadakis, was the Prime Minister of Greece in 1922, 
        and the main thoroughfare in the Hora is named after him. Along the 
        waterfront is a square with a statue of Uncle Petros which bears only 
        his name, and the attached photo is of me standing in front of it during 
        my Summer, 2001 visit to Naxos.
