El Greco in New York
El Greco was a master painter known as one of the key figures in the Spanish Renaissance. He broke the rules of traditional painting by elongating his figures and preferring to connote grace rather than realism. It’s rare for El Greco’s work to be exhibited outside of Europe. With that said, the Met is honoring the 400th year after his death with an exhibit that will be open to the public until February 1st, 2015. Catch this unique collection of paintings while you can.
