Spyridon Sperantzas

Painter

  • Home

Spyridon Sperantzas (1733–1818) was a notable Greek painter whose career flourished during the Greek Neoclassical era and the period known as Neo-Hellenikos Diafotismos, marking the Modern Greek Enlightenment in art. He played a pivotal role in transitioning the Heptanese School into the Greek Romantic period due to the fall of the Republic of Venice. In the 1800s, with the Ionian Islands under French and English occupation, local Greeks experienced self-governance for the first time since the Byzantine Empire's decline. Sperantzas, alongside Nikolaos Kantounis and Nikolaos Koutouzis, epitomized the shift that defined Modern Greek art. His artistic influences stemmed from figures like Nikolaos Kallergis, Nikolaos Doxaras, and Nikolaos Koutouzis. Additionally, Sperantzas' son, Michael Sperantzas, became a renowned painter under his guidance. Spyridon also showcased his skills in fresco painting.
