About the Item

"The Tears of Saint Peter", Follower Domenikos Theotokopoulos- El Greco 19th Century El Greco Museum. Toledo, Castilla la Mancha, Spain. Saint Peter's Tears El Greco (1541-1614) Oil on canvas The issue of Saint Peter's tears will be used by theologians and moralists of the Counter-Reformation as an element of rapprochement with the faithful, bringing the saint's weaknesses closer to mortal man through the fault committed. It is a piece intended for private oratories, for private clients within the framework of the “devotion painting” enhancing the emotional approach between the faithful and the image. El Greco Museum The El Greco Museum, located in the city of Toledo (Spain), contains works by the Mannerist painter Doménikos Theotokópoulos, born in Crete but who produced most of his work in the Toledo city. The institution was inaugurated in 1911 as a house-museum to collect works by the Cretan artist, who was beginning to be revalued, and to reflect how he lived.
