As the Boston MFA caption points out, the artist's decision to limit the colours makes this so powerful. It's one of those pictures I come back to again and again in my mind's eye.

For the first time, Prado Museum brings together eight works by El Greco from around the world.
‘The Assumption of the Virgin’ – which belongs to the Art Institute of Chicago – was last displayed in the Madrid art gallery more than a century ago.

I was trying to find a work of art with which to illustrate the start of teaching term and decided on this remarkable painting by El Greco, usually called The Opening of the Fifth Seal though it has been given other names. Actually it’s only part of the original painting – the upper section was destroyed in 1880 – which at least partly accounts for the unusual balance of the composition. What I find astonishing about this work, though, is that at first sight it looks for all the world like an early 20th Century expressionist work, complete with distorted figures and vivid colour palette. It’s very hard to believe that it was painted in the early years of the 17th Century! El Greco was 300 years ahead of his time.
by Doménikos Theotokópoulos (“El Greco“), painted between 1608 and 1614, 224.8 cm × 199.4 cm, oil on canvas, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

El Greco -- St John the Evangelist
Back in 1976 in an exhibition of Golden Age Spanish painting at London's Royal Academy, the colours, style of representing the human form, and overall design of El Greco's St John the Evangelist made an unforgettable visual impression on me. More than a decade later, I was fortunate enough to see once more St John's distinctive El Greco physiognomy and hands at the Prado.
