Greek watercolor - very good shape by Demetrios Vassiliou. Bought in the early 1970’s. And been in storage for 25 years.
19x13 (art not frame)
Hello, this item is a framed watercolor or gouache painting on paper depicting a romanticized Mediterranean vineyard scene with a young woman holding grapes, attributed in the submission to Demetrios Vassiliou. The work is executed in a commercial mid-20th-century decorative style, with clean figural modeling, bright pastel color, and an idealized peasant or harvest subject intended for domestic display. The visible signature at the lower right reads as “Vassiliou,” and the Greek subject matter supports a Mediterranean origin or market association. The composition, technique, and framing presentation place it within the category of attractive decorative watercolor or gouache works rather than a major gallery-level fine art example.
The painting appears to be in good overall condition from the images, with no obvious staining, fading, tears, or paper losses visible through the mat and glazing. The frame and mat are presentable and support its decorative value, though works on paper should be examined outside the frame to confirm condition, paper type, and any inscriptions. Collectibility is moderate, driven by the appealing subject, signature, and vintage Greek decorative character, but the market remains limited unless the artist attribution can be fully documented through gallery records or provenance. Fair Market Value: $150 - $350 USD.
