ABOUT THE ARTIST
Nicholas Panoyotti Zarokilli Nikolaki was born in Turkey in 1879. He was a painter particularly fond of creating pictures of beautiful women. From 1912 to 1920, Zarokilli produced paintings for publications like MoToR, Modern Priscilla, Women’s Home Companion, The Green Book, McCall’s, and The Saturday Evening Post.
He also designed World War I posters. The United States needed money for the war, so the artist created posters to try and encourage people to give for the cause.
Zarokilli was known well for his dry-point paintings. He painted portraits for people such as the Queen of Spain, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Grand Duchess Anastasia, the King of Portugal, and Mr. and Mrs. Solomon Guggenheim. Landscapes were also a love of his, painting of the cities Venice, Madrid, and Seville.
