“Year by Year,” a sculpture by Manolis Charkoutsis, is a testament to Crete’s ancient olive trees. Crafted from the wood of a 1,000-year-old tree saved from becoming firewood, the artwork travels the island raising awareness for their preservation. Now residing at the Natural History Museum, it stands as a symbol of Crete’s rich heritage and ongoing efforts to protect its monumental flora.
