Artist Profile
El Greco
Spanish
·
1541–1614
Mannerism
Spanish Renaissance
Also known as:
Born Domenikos Theotokopoulos in Crete, El Greco developed an electrifying Mannerist style in Toledo—elongated spiritual figures, unearthly light, feverish color—that anticipated Expressionism by three centuries. His 'View of Toledo' is one of the most dramatic landscapes ever painted. Major works are in museum collections; when one appears at auction, it commands extraordinary international attention.
