About the piece
Painted in 1607, this work by El Greco captures Saint Hyacinth in a moment of profound devotion. The composition features the artist's signature elongated figures and ethereal light, setting the luminous apparition of the Virgin and Child against a somber, architectural background and the deep tones of the saint's robes.
