Description

In 1949 he was made a member of the Athens Academy and withdrew from the artistic scene because of an eye disease which did not permit him to exercise his art any longer.

Mathiopoulos painted symbolic, idealistic and historical subjects as well as scenes from everyday urban life, but he became particularly well-known and popular through his portraits. He primarily made use of pastels and, to a lesser degree, oil and having mastered impressionistic types, rendered his works with elegance and a tendency to idealize in agreement with the aesthetics of the Belle Epoque.
