"Christ Carrying the Cross V2" is one of the finest devotional image by El Greco where he depicts Christ's willing sacrifice for mankind is expressed through his gentle embrace of the cross and his heavenward gaze. In El Greco’s treatment of the subject he departs strongly from the suffering type of Christ, bent under the weight of the cross, and established a new type in which the Saviour looks rapturously up to God, and embraces the cross as an instrument of his own salvation. A golden, crepuscular warmth of Venetian colours and light adds more sentimental sweetness to the Saviour's figure.
