Bringing together work from around the world, incorporating familiar masters as well as lesser known artists, the exhibit "El Greco to Velazquez" at the Museum of Fine Arts establishes a clearer picture of the period of Philip III's rule of Spain between 1598 and 1621. Included in the exhibit are such masterpieces as El Greco's stunning Baroque landscape "View of Toledo" (detail above) and Velazquez's realist portraiture "Luis de Góngora y Argote." In conjunction with "Spanish Spring" the museum's restaurants Bravo and Galleria will feature Spanish-inspired menus. $23. $21 seniors and students. Museum of Fine Arts, 465 Huntington Ave., Boston. 800-440-6975. mfa.org
