These are among El Greco's most ambitious masterpieces.

It is one ofEl Greco's most famous worksEl Greco The Disrobing of Christ or El Expolio (Latin: Exspolĭum) is a painting begun in the summer of 1577 and completed in the spring of 1579 for the High Altar of the sacristy of the Cathedral of ToledoLatinsacristyCathedral of Toledo

one of the most celebrated landscapes in Western art— the View of Toledo

"Δομήνικος Θεοτοκόπουλος (Doménicos Theotocópoulos) ἐποίει." The words El Greco used to sign his paintings. El Greco appended after his name the word "epoiei" (ἐποίει, "he made it"). In The Assumption the painter used the word "deixas" (δείξας, "he displayed it") instead of "epoiei".

What seems to have attracted him to El Greco was the latter's courage to be different, his genius, pessimism, denial of hope and fear. He frequently refers to the famous El Greco painting Toledo in Storm (generally known as View of Toledo). He seems attracted to the surrealistic distortion of form in El Greco's work, and this paintings dark and elongated features emphasize the general pessimistic sense of human existence which Kazantzakis has.
