Elias Moskos

Theodore Poulakis and Moskos brought the art and style of Crete into the Heptanese school of the Ionian Islands.

That same year he agreed to paint scenes in different spaces inside the church Agios Theodore in Katastari, namely the pillars.

In 1655, he made his students Symeon Maroudas, and Α. Arissaio church committee members.

During the years 1659-1666 Moskos was heavily involved in the shipping industry in Zakynthos.

He was also responsible for building a ship and appointing church committee members in Corfu and Venice.

His final wishes were to be buried at the Monastery of Saint John at Langada Katastari.

He would also cancel the donation of an icon of the Ascension of Jesus Christ to the church of Faneromeni Zakynthos.

There was also an icon of the Archangel Michael in the church of Agia Sophia in the village of Koukesi, Zakynthos with his signature.

Theodore Poulakis is considered the father of Heptanese school because of his drastic transition to the new style of painting but Moskos is also an important member of the transition to the more refined style of the Heptanese school of the Ionian Islands.

Elias painted his famous piece Christ Pantocrator in the Ionian Islands.
