"St. Martini & St. Agnes, El Greco, National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC." Image capture 2021 by Stu Jenks.
There is a whole room of El Greco's work at the National Gallery. I spent a good amount of time in that room. This is a detail from a larger painting. El Greco painted this in 1597. I came away with these two thoughts: El Greco was a genius, and he was way ahead of his time.
Very moving experience, that one room. I liked his work before. I love it now.
