Leírás
Caravaggio and his works have been in the past years the object of a sort of collective infatuation that on one side brought the value of the master’s painting at very high levels and, on the other, generated a proliferation of new attributions, with a subsequent uncertainty and confusion among Caravaggio’s lovers, but also a devaluation of the excellent level of the autograph works.
The author tells the artist’s life, characterized by lights and shadows, by marvel and scandal, thus presenting us an exceptionally real and alive profile of Caravaggio as a man, as well as his capability to innovate painting through creativity and technique. A complete work, with high-quality reproductions of the paintings, that presents the surprising and troubled style of the greatest genius of Italian XVII century.
Rossella Vodret is an expert of the early XVII century painting, and specifically of Caravaggio and his followers; she has been curator of major exhibitions in Italy and abroad. She is the author of many scientific publications dedicated mainly to Roman painting of the early XVII century.
