Georgios Nomikos dating history

Details

Georgios Nomikos (Greek: Γεώργιος Νομικός; 1638/1643 – 1712) was a Greek Baroque painter. He converted to Christianity from Judaism. He was a member of the Cretan school and the Heptanese (Ionian) school. His contemporaries were Georgios Kastrofylakas, Theodore Poulakis, and Georgios Markou. He shared the same last name with famous Greek painter Demetrios Nomikos. He was active on the island of Zakynthos, Kefalonia Arta and Ioannina. Six of his paintings survived. Some of his frescos have survived in the destroyed church of Saint George in Lingiades, Ioannina. His work represents an evolution from the art of Angelos Akotantos and Elias Moskos to a more refined technique influenced by the art of the Ionian Islands.
