painter. He has been living and working in Amfissa and has taken

of Amfissa, the Greek Embassy in the Hague, at the Local Art Gallery
of Lamia, the Cultural Center of Amfissa and at many other private
collections in Greece and abroad. He has been honored with Greek
and international awards. He is a member of the International Unit
of Fine Arts and the Association of Visual Artists of Central Greece
SKETKE.
Charalambos Stefos, apart from his great work with themes of country
life and nature, in general, has also created a range of paintings
with themes taken from the difficult years of the Second World War
and the German Occupation in Greece. The artist himself lived as
a small child these tough years and has imprinted intensely in his
paintings the signs of his personal experiences. Through the faces,
the pictures, the shadows and the colors, as well, the artist makes
an important historical retrospective and gives the viewer and the
reader the chance to admire and judge his work, but also, to revive
deep historical memories.
