CV
Hatzis Vasileios
(Kastoria 1870 - Athens 1915)
A pupil of Volanakis, Vasileios Hatzis, both by his highly-skilled technique and the perfection of his design, and by the free development of his subject in terms of colour, creates a sense of a new form of painting, which, moreover, in some works comes close to the freedom of the Impressionists. Even those of his works with more realistic features possess the characteristics of colour and design which set him among the painters who gave a modernist form to Greek painting of the time.

Description
The three drawings by Hatzis depicting warships are studies for the work created by the artist as a commission from the Greek State, with scenes from the war at sea during the Balkan Wars of 1912 - 1913 as a subject. Hatzis was present at the sea warfare as a guest of the fleet, and produced authentic pictures of the naval operations in the Aegean, in a style which is turning more towards realism.
