Product Details

Product Description

Product Description

Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610) was a boldly original painter who led a short and violent life. The powerful realism of his figures upset many of his contemporaries, and their power to shock remains undiminished. This book, providing a biography, presents all his most famous masterpieces, each with a commentary. The introduction gives an account of his wayward life and his artistic development. Controversial in his own lifetime, and neglected after his death, Caravaggio has re-emerged both as a great master and as something of a cult figure, the subject of a notable film by Derek Jarman.

5.0 out of 5 stars Caravaggio - a mistake, July 7 2006
By 
This review is from: Caravaggio: Colour Library (Paperback)
As the author I am delighted that two people have rated this book as worth five stars. I would point out to the third reviewer that the Puglisi book, which is much more scholarly than mine, is also much longer, so I can claim the fives stars for myself.
