Comentario
Le Grec, né Doménikos Theotokópoulos (1541 - 7 avril 1614), est un peintre, sculpteur et architecte de la Renaissance espagnole . "Le Grec" était un surnom, une référence à son origine nationale grecque, et l'artiste signait normalement ses peintures avec son nom de naissance complet en lettres grecques , Δομήνικος Θεοτοκόπουλος ( Doménikos Theotokópoulos ), en ajoutant souvent le mot Κρής ( Krēs , « Crétois »). Le Grec est né en Crète, qui faisait alors partie de la République de Venise et était le centre de l'art post-byzantin. Il se forme et devient un maître dans cette tradition avant de se rendre, à l'âge de 26 ans, à Venise, comme l'avaient fait d'autres artistes grecs. En 1570, il s'installe à Rome, où il ouvre un atelier et exécute une série d'œuvres. Pendant son séjour en Italie, le Grec enrichit son style d'éléments du maniérisme et de la Renaissance vénitienne. En 1577, il s'installe à Tolède, en Espagne, où il vit et travaille jusqu'à sa mort. C'est à Tolède que le Grec reçut plusieurs commandes importantes et réalisa ses peintures les plus connues..
