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. Thus, in this graphic composition, the characteristic architectural rhythm of the island houses and settlements with their narrow cobbled streets, as well as the geometric white houses with their external staircases, wooden and arched doors, can be distinguished. In order to render the depth, the artist chooses the perspective convergence of the two side-by-side clusters of houses. A. Theodoropoulos renders the composition by combining certain cubist rules, mainly in rendering the volumes of the houses, and realistic elements.
