Christ on the Cross Adored by Donors (1580) is a oil on canvas painting by the Spanish Renaissance painter, sculptor and architect El Greco. A priest and a nobleman, probably the patrons who commissioned the painting, are shown praying before Christ on the cross. El Greco has included realistic details such as the drops of blood trickling from Christ's forehead, hands and feet, while leaving his torso and legs unstained. Light and shadow model Christ's musculature, the elongation of his contorted body enhancing a sense of his suffering. Above his head a sheet of paper stuck to the cross informs us in Hebrew, Greek and Latin that he is Jesus of Nazareth, with the additional ironic words in Greek hailing him as the King of Jews. The painting (248 x 180 cm) is in the collection of the Musée du Louvre, Paris.
