Historical reports & tributes

Reports of a historical character, anniversary tributes and interviews — and the only photograph he has, as a journalist, with a politician.

Argyris Dinopoulos never did political reporting.

He went to Parliament as a member of parliament, having almost never gone there before as a journalist.

This is the only photograph he has, as a journalist, with a politician.

It is a photographic snapshot of a «reportage» character, taken by the press photographer Dimitris Messinis in 1993, on the return of Konstantinos Karamanlis from London, where he had gone for medical examinations.

Documentaries of a historical character, interviews of the same kind, anniversary reports on political or sporting events, tributes on the passing of figures from the intellectual or artistic world are some of his journalistic works.

A crowd around an elderly white-haired man in a dark suit at the centre of the frame, speaking and turned to the right. A cluster of microphones with broadcasters' flags is held out to him. At right a man in glasses smiles, holding a microphone; behind and to the left, other men in suits, one with a video camera on his shoulder.
