Caravaggio (Michelangelo Merisi)
Caravaggio, born Michelangelo Merisi, is a central figure of the Italian Baroque, whose dramatic use of light and shadow reshaped European painting. His canvases draw on oil painting to render musicians, saints, and biblical scenes with unflinching realism. This collection gathers two oil on canvas works associated with the artist, spanning 1597 to 1610, represented here through impressions up to that range. Among the featured titles are The Musicians and The Denial of Saint Peter.
