'Cristo En Brazos Del Padre Eterno', (Christ in Arms of the Eternal Father), 1577, (c1934). El Greco painted his only version of the Trinity, with the semi-nude corpse of Christ being supported, and held in the arms of God the Father instead of the Virgin Mary. Pathos is revealed in the faces of the angels, with the dove of the Holy Spirit hovering protectively above. Oil on canvas. Held in the Museo del Prado, Madrid. From Galerias De Europa: Museo Del Prado, by A. De Beruete y Moret & Augusto L. Mayer. [Editorial Labor, S.A., Barcelona, c1934]
