Landscape: Galatsi is a 1957 unspecified by Nice win, held at Athens School of Fine Arts.
This painting shows a village with flat-roofed buildings in bright, uneven colors. The houses are stacked close together, some with dark doors or windows. A few tall trees and a church tower rise above the rooftops, and the background has rolling hills with a faint blue sky. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, almost like the artist slapped paint on quickly. The colors clash but still feel lively, with no smooth shading between light and dark. If you like this bold style, look up impasto.
