About

El Greco, born Doménikos Theotokópoulos, was a Greek painter, sculptor, and architect who became a key figure of the Spanish Renaissance. Known for his bold use of color, elongated figures, and spiritual intensity, El Greco developed a highly distinctive style that combined Byzantine tradition with Western Mannerism. His visionary works, often focused on religious themes, are celebrated for their emotional depth and otherworldly atmosphere, making him a forerunner of both Expressionism and modern art.
