CYLHA.10.059 (65) This portrait features Maria Angelinidou-Potamiti on the right and Maria Rousou on the left.

Maria Angelinidou-Potamiti, on the right, is dressed in a dark, elegant dress with a simple design. Her hair is styled neatly, parted in the center and pulled back. Maria Rousou, on the left, is similarly attired in a dark dress, tailored with a high neckline and a smooth silhouette. Her hair is styled in soft waves. The portrait features a soft-focus oval frame.
