About the piece
Painted by El Greco during his final years, this work reimagines the mythological struggle of the priest Laocoön and his sons against divine punishment. The composition features the artist's signature elongated figures and a luminous, moody palette, with the Spanish city of Toledo standing in for ancient Troy in the background.
