The Burial of Count Orgaz was completed in 1588 by El Greco. Its dynamic use of two separate spheres right above one another is very interesting. Also, there is a clear focus on the dead count in the foreground. The viewer then sees the people grouped behind him looking at the dead body as well as the figure on the right whose gaze draws the eyes up to the assention scene above. I find the composition to be extremely intriguing.
