About This Item
Skira, 2010. 2 hardcover volumes in slipcase. Hardcover. New. Like New, only leafed through once. Pages: 864
Colour illustrations: 700 Dimensions: 24 x 28cm (9.91 x 3.35 x 11.67 inches), weighs 14 lb
IN ITALIAN. This authoritative volume is the most complete publication to date to fully cover the first phase of the Caravaggesque movement. Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610) is probably the most admired, studied and universally known painter of seventeenth-century Italy. Everyone knows the legend of this cursed and hot-tempered painter, who was rejected by the Roman Curia for his paintings, which were considered to be inappropriate and even scandalous. However, a more complete picture of this artist-as the skilful director of a career fostered and protected by influential cardinals and important noble families-has been known for some time now, in all its complexity. Although many questions still remain regarding Caravaggio's body of work, it is certain that he never formed a proper school or studio.
