El Greco (Domenikos Theotokopoulos). The Vision of Saint John, ca. 1614 (Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York).
Oil on canvas: 222.3 x 193 cm. Originally an altarpiece referred to as 'Profane Love', and later renamed 'The Opening of the Fifth Seal'. Its modern composition is due to a restoration around 1880 when the upper portion of the canvas was cut down. It makes so much sense that this painting was the inspiration for 'Les Demoiselles d'Avignon'.
