el greco view toledo Dimensions (inches):44 x 39" including graysCanvas painted at some point between 1604 and 1614, by El Greco. It is one of the first oil landscapes in history, as prior to the Renaissance the genre did not exist as such. Although at first glance it does not show great detail or the illuminated figures on the horizon that the modern Western eye is accustomed to, the work is considered brilliant, especially in achieving the sky and the high contrasts used to depict it.
