Christian Zervos (Argostoli, Cefalonia Greece 1889 – Paris 1970). French art collector, writer and publisher.
Better known as a publisher of books than as an art critic in his own right, Zervos founded the magazine Cahiers d'art (1926 – 1960) in Paris, and ran an art gallery.
He was a connoisseur of modern painting in his time, and of Greek art and prehistoric art. He published several books, of which the most important are: The Art of Crete, The Art of the Cyclades, L'art de l'époque du Renne en France, and a catalogue raisonnee of the work of Pablo Picasso.
M. Christian Durquet, Conservator of Patrimony at the Musée de l'Art Contemporain, ordered the establishment of a Zervos Museum at Vézelay.
