Historic Fantasy
Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (a.k.a. Caravaggio)
Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, known as Caravaggio, was a revolutionary Italian painter who created some of the most influential works of the Baroque period. With his dramatic use of chiaroscuro and intense emotional realism, Caravaggio brought biblical and mythological characters to life. His art was characterized by a remarkable degree of naturalism, and he often used people from the lower strata of society as models. Controversial and volatile in his lifetime, Caravaggio's work had a significant impact on the art of his contemporaries and the development of the Baroque style.
