Caravaggio. 40th Ed.
Caravaggio, or to be more precise Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610), was always a figure of prominence. Considered a rebel in Italian painting, the artist was both praised and reviled. Of violent temperament and precise technique, he was both a creative master and a fugitive from justice. Today he is considered one of the most influential figures in the entire history of art.
The five chapters that complete the book cover Caravaggio's entire career, from his first public commissions in Rome to the height of his celebrity. Likewise, the book's detailed chronology reviews his tempestuous personal life, in which the tragic had the same prominence as the chiaroscuro in his canvases.
