The monument is inspired by the Greek mythological goddess of victory Nike.[2] Džamonja built it immersed in the landscape. The metallic structure in the center represents a stylized sun, which is given two asymmetric wings on the sides.[2] The monument was dedicated in 1967 by the president of Yugoslavia, Josip Broz Tito.
