I have a Rappas in the house, but I reckon it is before 1976, as it shows Katsika's restaurant (run by the indomitable Stavros) adjacent to Tasso's. The painting is very naive, with proportions wrong. Could this be by his father?

Whose father?
Giannis Rappas was the name of the fisherman
turned to famous naif painter in Hydra.
Is your painting by Giannis Rappas?
