Domenikos Theotokopoulos—known as El Greco, "the Greek"—holds a singular place in the history of art. He was the last great master of the Spanish Renaissance, a contemporary of Shakespeare and Cervantes, yet his dramatic style would inspire both cubists and expressionists in the modern era, and his work still speaks to 21st century viewers. In this compact catalog for the 2019-20 exhibition El Greco: Ambition and Defiance at the Art Institute of Chicago, his evolving style is seen in 40 works, including Christ Driving the Money Changers from the Temple, The Vision of St. John, and The Assumption of the Virgin, with some of the images presented as foldouts.
