Caravaggio, or more accurately Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio
(1571-1610), was always a name to be reckoned with. Notorious bad
boy of Italian painting, the artist was at once celebrated and
controversial: violent in temper, precise in technique, a creative
master, and a man on the run. Today, he is considered one of the
greatest influences in all art history. This Bibliotheca
Universalis edition offers a neat and comprehensive Caravaggio
catalogue raisonne. Each of his paintings is reproduced from recent
top-quality photography, allowing for a vivid encounter with the
artist's ingenious repertoire of looks and gestures, as well as
numerous detail shots of his boundary-breaking naturalism. Five
accompanying chapters trace the complete arc of Caravaggio's career
from his first public commissions in Rome through to his growing
celebrity status and trace his tempestuous personal life, in which
drama loomed as prominently as in his canvases. About the series
Bibliotheca Universalis - Compact cultural companions celebrating
the eclectic TASCHEN universe!
