Copenhagen's Statens Museum for Kunst holds 2 works by El Greco (1541–1614) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
El Greco's elongated ecstatic figures and extraordinary colour sense were so distinctive that later centuries dismissed him as eccentric; now he is recognised as one of the great originals of Western art. His paintings have an almost electric intensity in person that reproduction consistently fails to convey.
