Original signed lithograph by Alekos Fassianos made in relation to the Olympic games in Athens 2004. The piece is titled “Athlète vainqueur et colombe de la paix” (Victorious athlete and Dove of Peace).

Alekos Fassianos was a Greek painter and one of the country’s most celebrated modern artists, known for his instantly recognizable style that fused classical heritage with contemporary life. Fassianos’ work is marked by bold, simplified forms and vibrant colors, often inspired by ancient Greek mythology, Byzantine art, and folk traditions.

His figures are portrayed in timeless, almost archetypal scenes. The flatness of his compositions, coupled with radiant hues of red, blue, and gold, evoke both the permanence of Greek antiquity and the intimacy of everyday Mediterranean life.Skabt af Fassianos til Olyampiaden i Athens 2004.

The piece is framed with a hand painted and patinated red frame, with light passepartout, and is placed on a light background.
