Late 19th century Greek art

Late 19th century Greek art at the National Gallery, Athens.

As I mentioned in a previous post, we recently went to the National Gallery to see the Goya exhibition. Even though we have seen the permanent collection quite a few times, we had another look at some of the exhibits and here, I am including some of my favourites of late 19th and very early 20th century art. I have started with the later works and going backwards in time.
