Lecchi A.

Lecchi A. is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Historical & Ethnological Society of Greece.

Lecchi A. moved through the 18th-century Ottoman port of Chios like a ship’s log with a paintbrush, sketching merchants in their ink-stained ledgers. His lone surviving portrait, *Portrait of Georgios Skoufos*, shows a Greek merchant draped in a coat so green it looks wrung out over a wooden chair—every button a tiny moon. Slide into Gallery Tiles on that single image and you’ll feel the Aegean salt still clinging to the canvas.
