Symbolism and Disagreement

While many media outlets described the New York look as "angelic," some noted that the wings might represent Athena's sacred animal, the owl, or her role as a guide. Source: mileniomx; excelsiormx This ambiguity highlights the depth of the mythological references in Roach's styling.
