A view of the sun rising behind Long Island City and the sculpture, "Good Defeats Evil", by Zurab Tsereteli, in the north garden area of UN Headquarters. The sculpture depicts St. George slaying the dragon. The Dragon here is made from actual parts of a Soviet SS-20 and an American Pershing II nuclear missiles, and represents the specter of nuclear war. The sculpture was presented to the UN by the Soviet Union in 1990 and commemorates the dismantling of the missiles under the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty signed 8 December, 1987 by Presidents Ronald Reagan of the United States and Mikhail Gorbachev of the Soviet Union.

Headline Mural Painting "Titans" by Lumen Martin Winter at UNHQ 
Caption Description The mural painting ""Titans"" by Lumen Martin Winter, which commemorates the United Nations World Youth Assembly. The mural, which measures 8'x 18', is oil pigments on linen canvas and has been installed on the third floor of the General Assembly Building. Based on the colors of the light spectrum representing the basic colors and creeds of all nations, the painting depicts five giants representing the five continents moving the world out of darkness into light. The technique is the artist's own pointillist style-more like the dots and dashes of a television screen or the light rays of a computer than those of Seurat. Winter chose light and color as a basic element of visual form to express an inner, more prismatic concept of nature, the hope of world youth, rather than a surface view. [Exact date unknown]
