Ep. 07 - Caravaggio - Il perché di tanta nostra attenzione
Italian Art Pods
02/28/21 • 12 min
Caravaggio is one of the most famous Italian painters, have you ever wondered why?
In broad lines, for three reasons: the first is for his troubled life, consisting of violence, death penalty and escapes. Second reason: his artistic gift, characterised by the absent background and especially by the attention to light, transparencies and reflexes. Third reason: the thin line between sacred and profane in Caravaggio artworks, which is the reason for lots of scandals.
Listen to this episode if you want to know more about his troubled life, art style and the scandals it raised.

Ariosto sa bene che dei desideri e delle illusioni si può restare prigionieri e, con il palazzo di Atlante, l’autore ben rappresenta l’insoddisfazione umana.
