Coronation of the Virgin

"Coronation of the Virgin" is a prominent religious painting created by El Greco between 1603 and 1605. The artwork is a prime example of late Renaissance Mannerism, honed by the artist's distinct style. El Greco crafted the piece employing oil on a robust canvas, promoting longevity and vibrancy of colors. Originally destined for the high altar of Santuario de Nuestra Señora de la Caridad in Illescas, Toledo, today it's amongst four of the total five paintings still adorning the church, while the fifth one resides in the National Museum of Art of Romania.
