That painting in middle by Caracci is surpassed by Carvaggio's painting, is the reality

Let me add a few points. Caravaggio did not "invent this "look": he brought it to Rome from the north. What horrified the Roman painters was that he used models-Rome was still under the influence of Michelangelo who maintained that an artist must work only from imagination, working from models was cheating. Add to this that Caravaggio used mirror projections to outline his figures onto the canvas, a technique he learned from the Flemish painters. via the Lombardy painters under whom Caravaggio studied. One more tid-bit: the three men that are raising the cross are the same model, used in different poses. Caravaggio often did this; you can easily spot one model used three times in the maestro's Death of the Virgin.
