Saints Stephen and Augustine, in gold vestments, lower the armoured body of a 14th-century nobleman into his tomb, while a row of black-clad Toledan gentlemen looks on. Above, an angel carries his soul up through the clouds towards Christ, the Virgin and John the Baptist. El Greco painted it for the church where the count is buried, and it still hangs there.
Look closer
The boy at lower left is El Greco's son Jorge Manuel. The handkerchief in his pocket carries the painter's signature and the date 1578, the year of the boy's birth.
