It could keep its original identity till the 2nd World War when it was destroyed by the Nazi bombs at Nitra. It felt apart and was rolled like a stone in the garden, and only the torso remained intact.

As the statue has been failed to saved, so in the '90's has been restored by the restorer, Miroslav Černák. The statue said to be certified as probably true copy with the original one.
The statue was finally unveiled here in the Garden of the Presidential Palace in 1992.
