        A different take on religious art
        No Expiration
        Naples Adventurer's Guild
        You see a lot of different altarpieces at churches, but did you know they have to adhere to certain rules? For instance, the Virgin Mary must be wearing red and blue. But lately in Seville, there's been news of an altarpiece the likes of which has never been seen before. Go there and ask about it at the tavern.

                1. Picture with distorted human dimensions
                That must be El Greco, the artist gaining fame right now. Artists have to be able to do icons before they can truly become first-class.
                He draws icons as well, but they're a little strange... At first, nobody cared for them. El Greco himself is in this town, maybe you should pay him a visit.

                2. Calculated composition
                Those who dislike my work criticize them for making the human form look stretched out. Absurd. Place my piece on an altar and take a look - they look just right./nYou want to see my painting? Well, a recent work of mine is at the church in Barcelona. It looks very simple at first, but I like it a lot.

                3. El Greco's altarpiece
                An altarpiece by El Greco is in the church in Barcelona. I wonder what it means to have the human form look stretched out? I should check the altar, at the far end of the church.

                  • The Crucifixion of Christ ★ (Work of art) Exp:185 Fame:78
                    El Greco's painting. The picture shows Jesus suspended from the cross and is composed with symmetry to the left and right with Christ's white body twisted so that he faces the sky. Because it ignored the religious symbolism of the time such as halos, it was not officially recognized at first.
