En savoir plus sur le livre
Doménikos Theotokópoulos is a unique artistic phenomenon in the history of art. El Greco created an art that remains a mysterious island, lost in the ocean of historical time. Byzantine, Venetian, Roman mannerist, or Spanish mystic, El Greco is claimed by many, becoming a banner of national ideology for both Greeks and Spaniards, a prophet and herald of modern art. Who then is the true El Greco? Historical research seeks to illuminate the historical figure of the painter, his life, his work, his ideas, and the conditions of his creation. Alongside the historical figure, there exists the myth of the artist, and beside, or rather in front of all this, is the work, which is no less mutable than the myth. For the work of art transforms continuously as it travels through time.
