Known as El Greco ("the Greek"), he was a late Renaissance painter who developed a highly personal style in his later works. Until the age of 26 he lived in Crete, where he was an appreciated master of icons in the post-Byzantine style prevailing on the island. He then lived for ten years in Italy, where he came into contact with Renaissance painters, first in Venice, fully assuming the style of Titian and Tintoretto, and later in Rome, studying the mannerism of Michelangelo.
