“The era that has influenced me most is Byzantine, since I have dealt with it before since I was young, before the School of Fine Arts,” says Pavlos Samios and continues: “The French school has also given me a lot, I mean Impressionism. Since the twentieth century, Picasso was the first to startle me when I was 17. I think that I carry him inside me as a counterweight to where I have to go as an artist. I also owe a lot to my teacher, Nikos Nikolaou, who taught me to see the secrets of the ancient Greeks and Yannis Moralis, who taught me about light, the composition and all the little things of painting. Also in terms of modern art and its extensions. ”
