The SHP and the Philhellenism Museum are organizing in the context of the National Anniversary of March 25th, a special and meaningful ceremony. The emblematic portrait of Ekaterini (Rosa) Botsari, created by the leading German Philhellene artist Joseph Karl Stieler, is presented for the very first time in Greece.
The portrait was acquired in December, 2024, by the Philhellenism Museum and from now on will be in its collection in Athens.
Rosa Botsaris, daughter of the great fighter of the Greek War of Independence, Markos Botsaris, stamped the history of modern Greece as one of the beauties of her time. The glorious journey of Markos Botsaris, as well as the tragic story of his daughter Rosa, placed them among the most influential figures of Philhellenism, worldwide.
As the interest in attending the event is enormous, the ceremony will take place over two consecutive days.
Tuesday 18 and Wednesday 19, March 2025, at 19.30. Philhellenism Museum, Zisimopoulou 12, 11524 Athens.
A cocktail will follow at the new Roof Garden of the Museum.
Free admission, by required reservation.
