Open and signed options are available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotographed in Prespes, this black and white image is structured around balance through horizontal alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe subjects are seated in a linear formation, facing directly toward the camera. A central figure anchors the composition, with symmetrical distribution on both sides. Hands are placed consistently, posture remains upright, and spacing between figures is controlled, creating a measured rhythm across the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe environment is the interior of a church, defined by a row of wooden chairs and a wall covered in frescoes. The painted figures in the background form a continuous horizontal band, introducing a second layer of repetition. A patterned textile on the ground reinforces the horizontal structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relationship between subject and environment is parallel. The seated figures echo the alignment of the frescoes behind them, creating a visual correspondence between the two layers. The architecture does not dominate but supports the compositional order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight is directional and controlled, illuminating faces and garments while leaving parts of the background in subdued shadow. The tonal range emphasizes contrast between the dark clothing and lighter architectural surfaces, while preserving detail in the textures of fabric and paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of the Caryatis series, a long-term body of work exploring traditional Greek costume through directed portraiture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinted as an archival pigment print on Hahnemühle fine art paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Horizontal alignment and symmetry\u003cbr\u003e• Repetition between subjects and fresco\u003cbr\u003e• Controlled seated posture\u003cbr\u003e• Structured tonal contrast\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in multiple sizes and formats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscover more relevant artwork, by heading over to our \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/macedonia\" title=\"Black and White Photography Wall Art from Greece by George Tatakis: Macedonia collection\"\u003eMacedonia collection\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWatch the video here:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gvYupOjJSfQ\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"George Tatakis","offers":[{"title":"30 x 20 cm \/ Print Only \/ Open","offer_id":53562861388115,"sku":"PRECHLN-SN","price":180.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 x 20 cm \/ Print Only \/ Signed","offer_id":53562861420883,"sku":"PRECHLN-SNY","price":320.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"42 x 30 cm \/ Framed in Black Oak \/ Open","offer_id":53562861453651,"sku":"PRECHLN-MY","price":800.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"42 x 30 cm \/ Framed in Black Oak \/ Signed","offer_id":53562861486419,"sku":"PRECHLN-MYY","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 x 42 cm \/ Print Only \/ Open","offer_id":53562861519187,"sku":"PRECHLN-LN","price":380.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 x 42 cm \/ Print Only \/ Signed","offer_id":53562861551955,"sku":"PRECHLN-LNY","price":920.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 x 20 cm \/ Framed in Black Oak \/ Open","offer_id":53562861584723,"sku":"PRECHLN-SY","price":480.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 x 20 cm \/ Framed in Black Oak \/ Signed","offer_id":53562861617491,"sku":"PRECHLN-SYY","price":680.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"42 x 30 cm \/ Print Only \/ Open","offer_id":53562861650259,"sku":"PRECHLN-MN","price":260.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"42 x 30 cm \/ Print Only \/ Signed","offer_id":53562861683027,"sku":"PRECHLN-MNY","price":560.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 x 42 cm \/ Framed in Black Oak \/ Open","offer_id":53562861715795,"sku":"PRECHLN-LYN","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 x 42 cm \/ Framed in Black Oak \/ Signed","offer_id":53562861748563,"sku":"PRECHLN-LYY","price":1800.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0458\/0632\/1823\/files\/prespes-caryatis-church-line-up-macedonia-greece.jpg?v=1777374160","url":"https:\/\/checkout.tatakis.com\/en-eu\/products\/black-white-photography-wall-art-costumes-of-prespes-at-a-local-church-macedonia-greece-4","provider":"George Tatakis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
