El Greco (Doménikos Theotokópoulos) and workshop

El Greco (Doménikos Theotokópoulos) and workshop is a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Art Institute of Chicago.

El Greco and his workshop painted dramatic religious scenes in oil on canvas, blending elongated figures, sharp contrasts, and glowing colors. In *The Feast in the House of Simon*, Christ dines with the Pharisees while a woman anoints his feet—a moment thick with tension and devotion. Tap the painting to see how the scene’s flickering light and swirling robes pull the eye across the canvas.
