"A retrospective exhibition of the Greek engraver and artist Nikolaos Ventouras, one of the greatest engravers of the 20th century, with his work extending over half a century, both in Greece and internationally".
"He draws his inspiration mainly from the local tradition of Corfu, focusing on themes of city life in Corfu town, rural landscapes and ships, using the human form only in complementary roles" - edited.
Ventouras was also a photographer of note:
