Vintage Photos - Spyros Nikolakakis - 31.05.2026

Photograph at Livadi, Kythira. Late 1930s, perhaps early 1940s. The girl in the middle is my mother Kyriakoula Kalligerou (Nikolakaki), today 93 years old. Behind her is my grandmother Eleni Kalligerou and in front of her is my aunt Chrysanthi Travasarou. I do not know the rest. The photographs of that era were not just a group depiction of people; They constitute a small cultural document combining history, sociology and collective memory, capturing the way of life, values and aesthetics of an entire era & especially when the group was more important than individuality.
