"Apostle St Thomas (1610-14)" is a notable oil painting by the Greek-born artist Domenikos Theotokopoulos, widely known as El Greco. Created during the latter part of his life and career, which he spent in Toledo, Spain, this work is part of a series of paintings depicting the twelve apostles, a subject to which El Greco returned several times. The painting measures 97 cm x 77 cm and is currently housed in the Museo del Greco in Toledo.

In "Apostle St Thomas," El Greco's distinctive style is evident in the elongated figure of the apostle, the dramatic use of light and shadow, and the vivid, almost ethereal color palette. St. Thomas is depicted with a contemplative expression, holding a spear, which is an attribute referring to his martyrdom. The painting's composition, with St. Thomas emerging from the dark background, exemplifies El Greco's ability to convey spiritual intensity and the inner life of his subjects.

The work is considered an important example of El Greco's mature period and reflects the artist's synthesis of Byzantine and Western painting traditions, as well as his interest in the spiritual and emotional expression. "Apostle St Thomas" is often studied in the context of El Greco's religious works and is noted for its influence on the development of Spanish Renaissance and Baroque art.

El Greco's series of apostle paintings, including "Apostle St Thomas," were likely intended for a religious setting, possibly as part of an altarpiece or for private devotion. The series showcases the artist's unique approach to portraiture, which is less concerned with physical likeness and more focused on conveying the spiritual character and the essence of the figures he depicted.
