This portrait of a Young Gentleman by El Greco, which hangs in the Prado Museum, shows a subject of unknown identity wearing a black velvet suit and stiff ruff. Harold E. Wethey, a renowned expert on the work of El Greco, dates the portrait from some time between 1600 and 1605. It was probably painted in Toledo. At that time Sebastián de Vivanco, who died eight years after El Greco, was chapel master at Salamanca cathedral, where the Flemish printer Taberniel published his great books of music. |
