The @National Galley, thanks for showing these astonishing paintings to those, who like me, haven't had the chance of visiting the Contarelli Chapel. What a brilliant documentary !!!

An exhibition in London that I have been waiting for for 10 years.

Caravaggio is probably my favorite painter, because of his extraordinary talent and ability to completely capture the most dramatic moment in a scene. I've seen card sharps numerous times and I got to see recently an exhibition of 40 works from the Capodimonte that came to Texas. One of which was a Caravaggio.

Please check out Valentin de Boulogne, if Caravaggio is your favorite. I think you will be pleased. Enjoy

There must have been other painters of his day, but they focus on the most violent person aligned with the Catholic occult regimes. Heroes should be law abiding people.

@freshstart4423 2 года назад

Since Caravaggio learned to paint this well in his day, there must have been many others with the same skills. Yet those who focus on violence, beastiality and perversion must be corrupt themselves.

Fresh start: Caravaggio was full life and temperament, this is already in his wonderfull paintings to see🤗 he was not a worm in earth, he was an eagle....he was a great, great painter🤗

@michaelbyrd7883 2 года назад

@@freshstart4423 Unfortunately violence is and always has been one of the ways humans looked to settle differences or steal things or because they're jealous, whatever. However, I don't believe there were many others in his day as good as him. Sure, there must of been as you say others with excellent skill, the 17th century was the Golden Age, but since I've study fine art for a while now, I haven't seen many of them with his ability. I understand It's subjective, you might think that Basquiat is as skilled as Caravaggio.

He was called. The Master of Light

@amandabeck2024 8 месяцев назад

Yea. When it comes to fine painting as a craft I got this crazy belief that Caravaggio is probably the best artist/painter that has ever lived on earth. He was a man legit touched by the hand of God.

Of course the Rector is all for them now, but Caravaggio's original version of St Matthew and the Angel was rejected by the Church. Good to see Helen Langdon, his most balanced and considered English biographer.

I wonder why they don't talk about the one in the middle too, Was that the Reason?

@coscinaippogrifo 2 года назад

The first version of that painting showed a saint acting basically like an illiterate peasant, and it was indeed very daring at that time. Let's not forget that, in any case, he used prostitutes as models for most of the Virgins he painted, and the whole of Rome was aware of that, and still kept commissioning or buying his artworks, even though extremely scandalous at the time. The establishment is what it is, but still Caravaggio was able to find patronage and live the best life, at least for a period. Other great artists haven't been that lucky.

@amandabeck2024 8 месяцев назад

Yea. The church rejected several of his works over his life. I thought I read somewhere that they had a real problem with Jesus and the deciples being portrayed barefoot.

@seanjohn3226 7 лет назад

Are this 3 painting in the london exhibition of Caravaggio work in the British Museum ?

@R0lan6 7 лет назад

I'm afraid not. The Beyond Caravaggio exhibition is still worth going to. Just attended today. Only six works are present, but the two flown in from America and Ireland are definitely worth seeing.

@seanjohn3226 7 лет назад

Thanks think the exhibition is going to Ireland and Scotland next year .so well visit it then. Say it's well worth going too.

His art is better than da Vinci Rembrandt or any of the other big name artist. He seems like a once jn a 100 year artist

@jin21juice1 7 лет назад

@AlexGCronkleton 7 лет назад

I think it is Palestrin's Missa Papae Marcelli.

He is the master of darkness. His paintings are dark and hate-filled. It makes my stomach churn to look at them. No one can claim to be a saint. This is not artwork of repentence.
