Andreas Pavias

His works could be found in churches and private collections throughout Italy and Greece, where they influenced countless artists.

Angelos Pitzamanos was the student of Pavias, who also influenced the works of such Cretan achool artists as Theodore Poulakis, Georgios Klontzas, and Michael Damaskenos.

Records indicate in 1482 Angelo Pitzamanos's father signed a contract with Pavias to teach his son painting for five years.

On October 24, 1492, he signed a five-year contract with Manousos Koukou to teach his son painting for five years.
