EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil painting captures the idyllic charm of the quaint village in Poros, a verdant island nestled in the southern part of the Saronic Gulf. Circa 1930, the artwork was created by the renowned Greek artist, Nicholas Himona. The scene portrays the picturesque village with its traditional whitewashed houses, cobblestone streets, and vibrant gardens, all framed by the lush greenery of the island. The serene atmosphere is further accentuated by the clear blue waters of the gulf, reflecting the clear, sunny skies above. Himona's masterful brushstrokes bring the village to life, capturing the essence of a simpler time. The artist's use of light and color adds depth and dimension to the painting, making it a true work of art. The painting was once part of the esteemed March of the Women Collection and has been exhibited in various galleries and art shows throughout the years. Poros, with its rich history and natural beauty, has long been a source of inspiration for artists and visitors alike. This painting offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of nature were cherished. Whether you're an art aficionado or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a scenic village, this painting is sure to captivate and delight.
