"Caring Bishop Nikodim", acrylic on canvas panel, Bishop Maxim, 2024

The painting captures the pensive character of Nikodim Milaš, the bishop of Dalmatia, immersed in thought and faced with the unknown future and the destiny of his flock. His face is rendered with precision, conveying the weight of his reflections. The coastline nature serves as an amphitheater gracefully embracing the central figure, enhanced by the subtle inclusion of a small boat to the left and a smattering of houses. The composition seamlessly melds introspection with the external environment, symbolizing the bishop’s deep bond with his surroundings.
— Fr Stamatis Skliris
