What if the most misunderstood painter in history was actually centuries ahead of his time?
This podcast takes you deep into the extraordinary life of Doménikos Theotokópoulos, the Greek-born master known as El Greco, whose elongated figures and otherworldly colors baffled his contemporaries but captivated the modern world. From the sun-drenched streets of Crete to the Byzantine workshops of Venice, and finally to the golden city of Toledo, we trace the journey of an artist who refused to conform to any tradition that did not serve his singular vision.
Through richly researched biographical narrative, art history, and cultural exploration, each episode unravels the mysteries behind his turbulent relationships, his spiritual obsessions, and the legacy that influenced Picasso, Cézanne, and the entire trajectory of modern art. This is a story about genius, exile, and the courage to paint the invisible.
