His influence on the course of Western art has been immense and has not been limited to the field of painting alone. Caravaggio vividly expressed crucial moments and scenes, often featuring violent struggles, torture, and death. His dramatic but naturalistic style of painting emphasised the common humanity of his subjects, the apostles and martyrs of the Christian faith.

The Baroque, to which he contributed so much, had evolved, and fashions had changed, but perhaps more pertinently Caravaggio never established a workshop as the Carracci did, and thus had no school to spread his techniques. Caravaggio's contemporary Giulio Mancini records that it was rejected because Caravaggio had used a well-known prostitute as his model for the Virgin.

Similarly, The Conversion of Saint Paul was rejected, and while another version of the same subject, the Conversion on the Way to Damascuswas accepted, it featured the saint's horse's haunches far more prominently than the saint himself, prompting this exchange between the artist and an exasperated official of Santa Maria del Popolo : "Why have you put a horse in the middle, and Saint Paul on the ground?

  • Caravaggio's Fruit: a Mirror on Baroque Horticulture
    1 Caravaggio’s Fruit: A Mirror on Baroque Horticulture Jules Janick Department of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture Purdue University, West Lafayette Indiana 479076-2010 The star of Caravaggio (1571–1610) as a master painter has never been higher. His innovative artistry is recognized as the bridge between the Mannerist school typified by Michelangelo Buonarroti and Titian of the high Renaissance and the Baroque splendor of Rubens and Rembrandt. His paintings and persona have entered popular culture; his portrait and two of his works were featured on the 100,000 lire banknote of Italy and a movie has been made of his life. Interest in Caravaggio has been enhanced by four current books: three biographies: Caravaggio by John T. Spike (2001), M: The Man who became Caravaggio by Peter Robb (1998), Caravaggio by Catherine Puglisi (1998), and a recent work Secret Knowledge by David Hockney, (2002) proposing Caravaggio’s use of optical aids. The life of Michelangelo Merisi (Fig. 1), known to us as Caravaggio, was short and intense, charac- terized by bouts of brawling, jail, expulsion, and homicide. His paintings are typified dramatic manipulation of light (chioscurra); reliance on human models, many with multiple appearances in his paintings; by a blatant, and in light of current events, disturbing homoerotic content (see Posner 1971, Robb, 1988); direct painting without preliminary drawings, a non-senti- mental approach to religious art, and an eerie photorealism that extends to portraiture, various objects including mu- sical instruments, scores, and plant material. Caravaggio has left few records by his own hand but the interpreta- tions of his paintings by generations of art historians com- bined with recent unearthed archival information provide a rich history of the man and his time.

  • Keith Sciberras, Baroque Painting in Malta, Midsea Publications, ISBN-10: 99932724932009, ISBN-13: 978-9993272496, 2009
    Keith Sciberras, Baroque Painting in Malta, Midsea Publications, ISBN-10: 99932724932009, ISBN-13: 978-9993272496, 2009 This marvellous and huge tome provides a detailed survey of the ‘Baroque period’ in Malta. This period was marked by the realism and naturalism of Caravaggist painting, the ‘noble classicism’ of the Bolognese school, and the exuberance of the high and late Baroque periods. The period is the richest in Malta’s art history as far as ‘old paintings’ are concerned. The author, Keith Sciberras, a History of Art academic at the University of Malta with a growing international reputation for his work in the area (particularly his work on Melchiorr Cafa and Caravaggio) states that he has been researching the period for the past fifteen years. This period is represented on the island by fine works of art. The painters in question include quite a number who stamped their mark on the history of western European art. Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio is undoubtedly the towering figure here. Then we come across works by Guido Reni, Jusepe de Ribera (the Valenciano, known as ‘Lo Spagnoletto’, from the Borgias’ city of Xativa), Luca Giordano (‘Luca fa presto’), Giovanni Battista (Battistello) Caracciolo, Massimo Stanzione, Mattia Preti (il Cavalier Calabrese), the Dutch caravaggist Mathias Stom (or Stomer), Pietro Novelli (il Monrealese) and Andrea Vaccaro. There are also lesser known figures on the international stage such as Mario Minniti (Caravaggio’s personal friend from Syracuse), the Florentine Filippo Paladini (he came here as a result of his having been sentenced to the galleys), Matteo Perez d'Aleccio, Giuseppe Arena and Stefano and Alessio Erardi.

  • Caravaggio in Rome: Part III from Santa Maria Del Popolo to Flight
    Caravaggio in Rome: Part III from Santa Maria del Popolo to Flight Even before the paint had dried on the final painting of the St Matthew Trilogy for the Contarelli Chapel in the Chiesa Luigi di Francesi, Caravaggio’s reputation had grown to the extent that he had become the most famous and sought after painter in Rome and as such attracted many new commissions. Around 1601-3 he was still in Cardinal del Monte’s household, but with the the approval of the Cardinal, also spent time in the Palazzo Mattei. He continued to arouse intense loyalty from rich and powerful would-be patrons, who never failed to support him when he was in trouble, which with his volatile personality, was an increasingly regular occurrence. The immense privileges offered by his patrons and protectors enraged his rivals and many years later, one of his biographers the painter Mancini, in his account, suggests both envy and malice in equal measure. The Santa Maria del Popolo, is one of three renowned churches that are situated around the Piazza del Popolo, one of most beautiful squares in Rome. Located just inside the Northern Gate, it was the first church, which pilgrims came upon on entering the city. Such now was Caravaggio’s status, that he was commissioned by Monsignor Tiberio Cerasi to paint two paintings for the Cerasi Chapel, designed by Carlo Madreno 1600-1; this much sought after commission was received even before Caravaggio had completed the St Matthew Trilogy in the Contarelli Chapel. At the time, Caravaggio had again descended into the Roman underworld of taverns, drinking, quarrelling and womanising, with his chums, Prospero Orsi and Orazio Gentileschi.
