Turkey's leaders are taking a break from enabling #Russia against #NATO and ethnic cleansing Syria’s #Kurds to launch absurd claims and empty threats against Greek islands. We take a look at the painful history of Turkish rule on one of them: a thread on #Chios from #theHELC 1/10

Es, sin dudarlo, una obra maestra, innovadora, con una composición compleja, abierta, un horizonte inestable, una luz irreal é imposible, pintado a pinceladas sueltas, onduladas, con poco colorido (centrado en la bandera) y donde predominan ocres, grises y marrones.
