The piece of art that I chose to critique is named The Adoration of the Shepherds. This beautiful and enthusiastic piece of work was completed by El Greco (the Greek) somewhere between 1612 and 1614. ... Many of Greco’s paintings created using cold eerie colors which expressed intense religious feelings.
As I wandered throughout the endless technological library at our fingertips (commonly called the internet) I was enthralled by the intensity of the works of Greco. ... It’s apparent that Greco was talented well beyond his time, and I believe his artwork would fit into any common day art gallery of the present very well. What I was looking for when I chose Greco’s work was a piece that was different from the more common and acceptable pieces of his time. ... Greco’s use of angles formed by the angels hovering over the figures surrounding the baby, create power, excitement, and a mythical fire. ... But Greco also uses colors that show passion, fire, and power through the intense reds, yellows and oranges surrounding the piece of art.
