Years later, the painter moved to Madrid and fell in love with Jerónima de las Cuevas, daughter of a military nobleman, with whom he had a son. The couple settled in Toledo, the city where El Greco triumphed as an artist.

The year is 1566. Crete has been occupied by the Venetians. After fleeing the island due to a massacre of Cretan rebels, the painter Domenicos The otocopoulos arrives in Venice following his lover, Francesca da Rimi, daughter of the Venetian governor in Crete. There he will find work in Titian's studio, where he will soon stand out from the rest of the artists and will be discovered by a talent scout from the government of Philip II. Also in Venice he will make friends with Niño de Guevara, a Spanish priest, with whom he will maintain a strange relationship. In Madrid he falls in love with Jerónima de las Cuevas, daughter of a military nobleman, with whom he lives and with whom he has a son. They settled in Toledo, where the painter experienced dazzling success, rubbing shoulders with the highest political and religious spheres. In that same city he meets again, years later, with his friend Guevara, now converted into Grand Inquisitor. Feeling a deep revulsion for the acts committed by the Holy Inquisition, El Greco, faithful to his principles, does not hesitate to take sides against it, earning the animosity of Niño de Guevara himself. After helping to free some of his victims and painting a portrait of the Inquisitor showing him as a despicable and cruel being, El Greco will be tried for heresy. The key to his release or his conviction is in the hands of his greatest enemy: El Niño de Guevara.
