1541-1614 Greece
Domenikos Theotokopoulos, known as El Greco (1541-1614), was a painter of the Spanish Renaissance with distinctive and unconventional characteristics. Born in Crete and later settling in Toledo, Spain, he created some of his most iconic works. El Greco's art is characterized by its elongated figures, dramatic use of color, and spiritual intensity, making him a notable figure in the Mannerist style of painting.
Beyond his art, El Greco was indeed a colorful character. He was known for his eccentric and sometimes flamboyant personality. He had a strong sense of individualism and a playful spirit, which occasionally led to clashes with others in the artistic community. Despite any controversy, his unique attitude and creative spirit left a lasting impact on the art world.
