For why I love the Annunciation, my bashing of Greek Independence Day, the Massacre of Tripolitsa, Lauryn Hill, the smell of bacalao, Mithraism and my Everything-is-Persian theory, see my last year’s post for the date: The Annunciation: “And I thank you for choosing me…”
Orazio Gentileschi (1623)
Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1850)
Henry Ossawa Tanner (1898)
Raphael Soyer (1980)

Me, I'm Nicholas Bakos, a.k.a. "NikoBako." I'm Greek (Roman really, but when I say that in English some five people in the world today understand what I'm talking about, so I use "Greek" for shorthand). I'm from New York. I live all over the place these days. The rest should become obvious from the blog.
