1 work across 1 institution
Prague's National Gallery Prague holds 1 work 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.
