Painted around 1602, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain. El Greco's unique style, known as Mannerism, is evident in this painting. The elongated figures and dramatic use of color and light create an ethereal atmosphere that draws viewers into the scene. In this poignant depiction of Christ's journey to Calvary, we witness his burden as he carries the cross upon his shoulders. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke conveys emotion and intensity. Through skillful composition and expert technique, El Greco captures both physical strain and spiritual resilience in Christ's face and body language.
