El Greco Painting: The Dormition of the Virgin The Dormition of the Virgin (before 1567, tempera and gold on panel, 61,4 ?? 45 cm, Holy Cathedral of the Dormition of the Virgin, Hermoupolis, Syros) was probably created near the end of the artist's Cretan period. The painting combines post-Byzantine and Italian mannerist stylistic and iconographic elements.
