Anastasios G. Leventis from 1950 until the decade of 1970 collected and managed to create the current complete collection of European Art of the A.G.Leventis Foundation, known as ”The Paris Collection”. Thanks to the hard work of Mr. Leventis and the large part of his life spent in Paris, he collected an undisputable cultural wealth of artistic findings from many art movements. ![]()
