TASCHEN BOOKS - Caravaggio (Basic Art Series)

Caravaggio was a force to be reckoned with. Precise in technique, violent in temper, the notorious bad boy of Italian Baroque is now considered one of the greatest artistic influences of all time. This book presents an accessible introduction to the life and times of the dramatic master, exploring Caravaggio’s most famous and revolutionary works alongside his equally intense biography.
