About the artwork

An idyllic Greek church, nestled in the picturesque town of Oia on the beautiful island of Santorini, Greece, adorns the picture. The image exudes the distinctive splash of colour so typical of Greek architecture, with a combination of bright blue domes and pure white walls. This iconic colour scheme is an unmistakable symbol of the Greek islands and reflects the simplicity of the Mediterranean aesthetic.

Shrouded in radiant white, the little church is a charming contrast to the deep blue of the domed tower and the sea in the background. A typical example of traditional Greek architecture. A summer picture that exudes serenity and tranquillity at the same time.

While the little church commands attention, the background also shows a typical image of Santorini. The Aegean Sea stretches to the horizon, where part of Santorini's caldera can still be seen.

The town of Oia, with its narrow streets and whitewashed buildings, provides the perfect backdrop for this picture. The picture exudes the unique atmosphere of the Greek islands, where history, tradition and natural beauty come together harmoniously.

This picture evokes a sense of longing for the warm summers of Santorini, where every corner seems to be a postcard. It is an invitation to wander the winding streets, enjoy the local delicacies and relax as time seems to stand still in this idyllic Greek oasis.
