El Greco-inspired, metal sculptures in Russia by Nikos Floros

Tripoli-born Greek artist Nikos Floros showcases two mosaic works inside St Petersburg’s State Museum St Isaac’s Cathedral

Two works by the Greek artist, each standing 4.3 meters tall, had just been unveiled to an audience mostly comprising local officials and media. Inspired by El Greco, “The Resurrection” and “The Disrobing of Christ,” both sculptured aluminum, were executed 400 years after the Cretan-born old master’s death in Toledo, Spain.
