Summary

Pandelis Prevelakis: El Greko

"Theotokopoulos' life, like his Toledo, is illuminated by a sudden, sudden lightning. No period of his life is fully known to us; his origin, childhood, apprenticeship in Bassano, stay in Venice and Rome and departure to Spain are a dark narrative in which anecdotes and legends are intertwined. Individual events from his life, some official documents, many paintings, insignificant sculptural and architectural works - here is the source for the historian who wants to reconstruct the life of the famous Cretan. Theotokopoulos' case is one of the strangest in the history of painting. The painter from Toledo lives today like the painter from Balzac's "Unknown Masterpiece"; his madness is discussed like Hamlet's agony or Gioconda's smile life seems romantic. In order to explain his era, to present the societies he met, to find the schools of painting that influenced him, to finally understand his personality and determine the importance of his works, one needs to be careful and diligent."
