Comparing El Grecos St Francis Venerating the Crucifix to El Grecos St John the Baptist

Please compare the respect of El Grecos for St. Francis's cross against the contrasting works of St. John of John the Baptist of El Grecos and John the Baptist of Baptist. The real name of the artist is Dominikos Theotokopoulos, but some people call El Greco. Translation is only "Greek". Both pictures were written by El Greco as the end of his life, and both are among the important religious figures of the Christian religion.

El Greco, still important for his initial biography, still in Crete, probably painted his Madonna Sabbath at the end of the Cretan era before 1567. The other three prominent works "Doménicos" are due to El Greco (Modenatriptik, painting St. Luke Virgin and Child, and worship of magicians). In 1563, at the age of 22, El Greco was already the registered master of the local guild, probably his own studio director. A few years later he left Venice and never returned to Crete. His Madonna Sabbath, a panel of temperatures and gold before 1567, may have been created at the end of the El Greco Crete period. This painting is a combination of Post Byzantine style and Italian style style and graphic elements, with elements of Cretan style built in.

He is known as El Greco (Greek), but his real name is Domenikos Theotocopoulos; he therefore, through his life Greek letters, and sometimes Chris (Crete) and his paintings Signed on. There are few people who know his youth. And the works that survived the symbolic paintings of Byzantium, especially the recently discovered Madonna satisfaction (Syros' Koimesis tis Theotokou church) are very few. In 1566 he was called a master painter in the document of Crete; soon he went to Venice (then Crete was a property of the Venetian), then moved to Rome in 1570. The small artist Giulio Clovio encountered there, he called him a Titian student, but all the painters of Venice Tintoretto had the greatest influence on him and the influence of Michelangelo on his development was also important.
