Hellenic Diaspora Foundation, online collection catalogue, Oiseau Virevoltant, record 7105. Institution-reported collection; object photograph compared with the Archive record. Checked 8 September 2026: https://www.hellenicdiaspora.org/home/portfolio-item/constantin-andreou-7105/
| The English Hellenic Diaspora Foundation record for the related composition, no. 7105, gives the title Oiseau Virevoltant, describes a unique piece in “Soldered brass”, and gives 1971 and 50.5 × 32 × 30 cm. The Greek version says “Συγκολλημένος μπρούντζος” (welded bronze). The Archive retains 1959, Bronze, and 32 × 23 × 203 cm; the differing dates, measurements, and material descriptions remain unresolved. The same institutional record lists the following bibliography: Andreou, sculpture. (2004) Thessaloniki: Teloglion Foundation. ISBN: 960-87805-1-9. — Bastas editions. (1999) Andreou, Sculpture: Bas-reliefs in color. Athens: Bastas. (ISBN: 9607418395). This bibliography is cited from the institutional record; the relevant artwork pages have not been examined directly.
