Description
favorite subject of Angelos Theodoropoulos’s engraving from the early 1940s onwards is the island (mainly Cycladic) landscape and above all the rendering of its characteristic architecture. In this specific engraving composition, Angelos Theodoropoulos chooses to capture the interior architecture of island homes. On the first level we see the paved inner courtyard, which leads straight to the arched entrance of the ground level of the residence. The engraving is bordered on either side by the two staircases of two houses which are rendered in such a way that those who start one (the one from the viewer’s left in the case of climbing), the other ends (the one from the right). Both lead to the geometric, multi-level (in relation to each other) and bordered stone-built balconies and which lead to the characteristic wooden doors of these houses. Their tiny windows are also depicted, a feature of Cycladic architecture, while the artist makes clear to us the source of the natural lighting of the composition, the direction of which is from right to left.
