This artist received a job in Rome on the recommendation of Giulio Clovio, but had to leave after criticizing Michelangelo's Last Judgment. His only mythological painting shows the Trojan Horse in the background and includes two gods who watch serpents attack Laocoon and his sons. He may have inspired Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon with a painting in which angels give robes to seven naked souls while St. John experiences a vision. In another of his paintings, St. Stephen and St. Augustine are carrying the armored corpse of the title nobleman. For 10 points, name this painter of The Opening of the Fifth Seal and The Burial of Count Orgaz, a Mannerist from Crete who came to live in Toledo.
