This vibrant, signed oil on canvas, titled Greek scene of men and women in a fishing village, is the work of William 'Bill' Papas (1927–2000).
Papas, who first gained renown as a South African cartoonist illustrating for The Guardian for many years, later transitioned his focus to painting after moving to Greece. This particular piece captures the Greek scene of men and women within a fishing village, a subject central to his later body of work. His art is internationally recognized, having been exhibited in prestigious venues such as the V&A.
Condition - This piece shows some small signs of wear to the frame, a small crack and chip which I have highlighted in the pictures.
Dimensions - 59 cm x 79 cm.
