Caravaggio

The Life and Legacy of Caravaggio

Caravaggio's life was as tumultuous as his paintings were dramatic. He was known for his fiery temper and lived a life marked by violence and controversy. Despite this, his artistic genius was undeniable. Caravaggio moved to Rome in his early twenties, where he quickly gained recognition for his innovative approach to painting. He focused on capturing the raw, unfiltered reality of his subjects, often using ordinary people as models for religious scenes. His ability to infuse his works with emotion and drama made him a favorite among patrons and revolutionized the depiction of sacred themes.

Caravaggio's influence on the Baroque movement was profound. His works are characterized by a heightened sense of realism, achieved through his masterful use of chiaroscuro. This technique involved the dramatic contrast of light and dark to create depth and volume, bringing his figures to life with an intensity that had a lasting impact on the art world. His legacy extends beyond his own work, as he inspired a generation of artists known as the Caravaggisti, who adopted and adapted his style, spreading his influence throughout Europe.
