Portrait of a Clergyman is a 1577 oil on paper miniature painting, attributing by many art historians to El Greco , making it one of few works in that format generally included in his corpus. It is X-201 in Harold Wethey 's catalogue raisonné of El Greco's works.[ 1]
Some art historians identify the subject as Diego de Covarrubias [ 2] as the figure's appearance is similar to that of Portrait of Diego de Covarrubias . He died the same year as El Greco arrived in Toledo .[ 3]
Mayer and Camón Aznar ascribe it to El Greco.[ 4] Ezquerra del Bayo called it Portrait of Covarrubias in his Exposición de la miniatura-retrato en España: catálogo general ilustrado (1916) and ascribed it to El Greco.[ 5] Wethey doubted the work was by El Greco and instead assigned it to the late 16th century Spanish school.[ 1]
