El Greco's art is so enigmatic and different from that of his contemporaries.
He had the forsight to blend a synthesis of the art from Byzantine culture together with Western elements of visual communications.
His art spoke to the many different cultures and citizens of all social levels.
His artwork also is a reflection of his emotional struggles with married life, parenthood and the prevailing midieval social structure of authority.
El Greco reaches out to us with messages and insights that keep us engaged and enlightened.

- DEAR KARLA -
I know little of this painter but you certainly brought him to life in your informative and lively lecture.
I look forward to adding to my knowledge
of Spanish Masters as I attend other lectures.
Keep up the good work Karla.
You are certainly making a great contribution to our cultural life and understanding of Spain."
