Notorious bad boy of Italian painting, the artist was at once celebrated and controversial: Violent in temper, precise in technique, a creative master, and a man on the run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition offers a comprehensive reassessment of Caravaggio’s entire œuvre with a catalogue raisonné of his works. Each painting is reproduced with recent, high production photography allowing for dramatic close-ups with Caravaggio's ingenious details of looks and gestures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive introductory chapters analyze Caravaggio's artistic career from his early struggle to make a living, through his first public commissions in Rome, and his growing celebrity status. They look at his increasing daring with lighting and with a boundary-breaking naturalism which allowed even biblical events to unfold with an unprecedented immediacy before the viewer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor: Sebastian Schutze\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch5\u003ePublished by Taschen GmbH.\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eGardners stock at 30 Jul 2026: 85 copies in stock\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sebastian Schutze","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57127687389562,"sku":"9783836587969","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0373\/4125\/files\/9783836587969.jpg?v=1785446270","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.co.uk\/products\/caravaggio-the-complete-works-45th-ed-9783836587969","provider":"Belfast Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
