The Feast in the House of Simon

Although this painting features the bold highlights, elongated figures, and vibrant colors characteristic of El Greco’s late career, the artist enlisted his workshop to execute some parts of the scene. The heads of the figures reflect the work of different artists, including likely the artist’s son, Jorge Manuel. The fantastical background, possibly conceived by an assistant, is unlike any other by El Greco.
