Nikolaos Himonas (Νικόλαος Χημόνας) was a Greek painter. He studied painting in Athens and later in Munich, Germany, where he was strongly influenced by the Munich School. He was also influenced by the Barbizon School and the Impressionists, as well as Greek folklore and tradition. Himonas was a versatile artist who worked in various genres including landscape, portrait, and still life. He was also known for his religious paintings, which were highly regarded by the Greek Orthodox Church. His paintings often featured strong contrasts of light and dark, and he was skilled in capturing the essence of his subjects.

Himonas was an active participant in the cultural life of Greece, exhibiting his work in various art exhibitions and serving as a professor of painting at the Athens School of Fine Arts. He also worked as a restorer of frescoes, and his knowledge of traditional techniques contributed to the preservation of many important works of Greek art. Himonas passed away in 1929 in Athens, leaving behind a legacy as one of Greece's most important artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
