Nikos Engonopoulos (Greek: Νίκος Εγγονόπουλος; 1907 – 1985) was a Greek painter and poet. He is one of the most important members of the Generation of the ’30s, as well as a major representative of the surrealist movement in Greece. His work as a writer also includes critique and essays.
 
 
The German Painter Klaus Frieslander (1909 – 1944) was the first teacher of Panayiotis Tetsis, one of the most important Greek painters, an exponent of the post-impressionistic seascape tradition.
Kastoria is a city in northern Greece in the region of Western Macedonia. It is the capital of Kastoria regional unit, in the geographic region of Macedonia. It is situated on a promontory on the western shore of Lake Orestiada, in a valley surrounded by limestone mountains. The town is known for its many Byzantine churches, Byzantine and Ottoman-era domestic architecture, its lake and its fur clothing industry.
Zagora is a village on the Pelion peninsula in Magnesia, Thessaly. During the Ottoman occupation, the area was given privileges during the reign of Sultan Mehmet IV, the most important of which was that Turks should not live permanently in the area. Agriculture and trade flourished, while local handicrafts of woolen fabrics and silk flourished until the middle of the 19th century. Wealthy Zagorian merchants settled in many cities abroad. Those who remained in the village maintained branches and representatives in important trade centers of the time (in Moldavia, Russia, etc.). The financial strength and the constant communication with the outside created the ground for the intellectual development and prosperity of Zagora.
