 Scene 6
(The students describe The Knight with his hand on his chest)


Student A: Who is this man?
Student B Everybody knows him but nobody knows his name. That is why he is called The Knight with his hand on his chest.
Student  C: How old is this picture?
Student  D: It’s 400 years old.
Student  E: How many colours does he use?
Student  F: He uses:
Grey for the background
Black for his tunic, beard, moustache and hair
White for the hand on his chest , the ruff on his neck, his forehead and his eyes.
Student  G:.Why does he only use these colours?
Student  H: He uses light or dark colours due to religious influence.
Student  I: What do you find interesting in it?

Student  J:.The position of his hand and fingers.
Student  K: Why does he have his hand on his chest?
Student  L: Nobody understands why he has his hand on his chest. But hands are very important in  El Greco’s paintings. In this portrait we find  the same hand as in the Expolio’s Jesus’ hand which is in Toledo’s cathedral.
Student  M: What do you think about the man’s look?
Student  N:The depth  of the man’s look  is typical of  El Greco.
Student  Ñ: Why do you think this man has a sword and a medallion?
Because he was a sixteenth century knight.
