The National Gallery of Athens has highlighted ‘The Moon’, a 1998 watercolour by Greek artist Panayiotis Tetsis, in a collection-focused social-media post published on August 28, 2026. The work is held by the museum and was donated by the artist.
Tetsis (1925–2016) made the work in watercolour on paper. The National Gallery lists its dimensions as 74.7 by 105 centimetres. The post identifies the piece by its Greek title and English translation, without providing further information about its display history or current location within the collection.
The work’s broad horizontal format is reflected in the museum’s published measurements, while the title identifies the subject simply as the moon. No additional details about its imagery, technique beyond the stated medium, or the circumstances of its creation were included in the announcement.
The National Gallery of Athens presented the post as part of its ‘Our National Gallery’ collection spotlight series. The item is a collection reference rather than an announcement of an exhibition, event, or new acquisition, and no exhibition dates or venue details were supplied.
‘The Moon’ is recorded as a work from 1998, with the National Gallery identifying its medium as watercolour on paper and crediting its provenance to a donation by Tetsis. The museum’s post provides no further programme or viewing information.
