Italian Renaissance and Baroque Art: CARAVAGGIO
Advertisement
Presented by Paolo Amadio, a native of Rome, Italy. Mr. Amadio has long cultivated a deep passion for Roman and Italian art and history.
In this multimedia presentation, you will learn about Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio and how he revolutionized painting with his dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro. His works brought biblical scenes into the realm of the ordinary, depicting saints and apostles with raw humanity. Caravaggio’s naturalism and intensity shocked his contemporaries but deeply influenced generations of artists.
