Gerasimos Steris: A Pioneer of Greek Modernism Gerasimos Steris (Stamatelatos), born in Digaleio, Kefalonia in 1898, stands as one of the most enigmatic and influential figures in the history of modern Greek art. His artistic journey reflects the internal quest and innovation that characterized his era—a generation grappling with tradition while embracing bold new perspectives.

A chart of gerasimos steris's corpus mapped not by date but by subject. Spokes are what they painted; rings are when; and the threads between stars reveal the patrons and places that secretly connect them.
Each arm of the atlas gathers works by what they depict: portraits, sacred scenes, mythologies, and the scientific studies. Click a spoke to swing that cluster to the top.
Distance from the center marks time. The innermost ring is the earliest period; the outermost, the final years. Style matures as you move outward.
Coloured lines link works bound by the same patron, commission, or theme. Trace a context to watch related clusters light up across subjects.
