"Hydra" is a painting by Konstantinos Parthenis, a prominent Greek artist known for his landscapes. The painting depicts a picturesque coastal town nestled on a hillside overlooking the Aegean Sea. Parthenis's signature style is evident in the painting's soft hues, capturing the essence of the Mediterranean light. The brushstrokes are delicate, creating a sense of tranquility and harmony. The painting, currently housed in the National Art Gallery in Athens, is a testament to Parthenis's mastery of capturing the beauty of his native Greece.
