A Greek painter: Nikolaos Gyzis and The Stepmother

'The Stepmother' (1882-1883) by Nikolaos Gyzis; Koutlidis Collection, Athens

I don't know about you but I'm not familiar with Greek painters. I had never ever heard of Nikolaos Gyzis but I like this painting. Born in 1842 and died in 1901, on the 4th of January, Gyzis was considered to be one of Greece's most important painters and member of the Munich school, a Greek academic art movement.
