funnily enough, not only did he have a _real_ moustache, he also had _really_ powerful friends. the well-known profligate Cardinal del Monte was his protector in Rome until he became too annoying to deal with. then he hid under the noble Colonna family in Naples until he became too annoying to deal with. then he went to Malta because the head of the Knights there, Alof de Wignacourt, liked his style, until he became too annoying to deal with. then he tried to curry favor with another cardinal, Scipione Borghese, but he died before he became too annoying to deal with.

Great video, very insightful. This painting holds a special place in my heart, firstly because it's a point of pride as an Irish person to have a genuine Caravaggio here in Dublin, and also because a full-size copy of the painting hung (and still hangs) on a wall in my local church (which also features a genuine Harry Clarke stained glass window!), which I have very distinct memories of as a child going to mass. Even though I no longer consider myself Catholic, it's still a powerful painting for me as one of the first I ever had a strong emotional reaction to.

But what really intrigued me was the way he used a black or very dark background and clever use of light angles to make his works so dramatic. Being a struggling photographer, these elements always draw my attention towards what I am looking at and I try for them in my photos when I can. The limited light coming from the direction of the viewer was excellent. Thank you for your taking the time to create and post this video.

Caravaggio’s self portrait: His face glows with fascination in the event of Jesus’ conviction - which is evident in the painting itself. His hand holds the light as if he is ‘shining a light’ on the rawness of human nature and the chaotic results from good and evil. The greatest point being made is that his right hand, the one holding the lantern, is his painting hand (as stated) and is shaped as if he were holding a paintbrush with the intent of fine detail. His painting hand in action, holding the light that shines unto the event is the brilliance of how the artist Caravaggio, makes this piece one for his own eyes, in his own story for you to see. The subtle, yet saturated emotional communication of Caravaggio’s values, morals, and ethics are displayed in a piece of what we humans categorize as art, the secret language of the human race - super alien if you ask me. It’s like a visual transfer of a million emotions that is so dense, this video barely scrapes the entirety of built up experiences that lead to this depiction. Cool stuff.

He was a man who knew darkness with an intimacy that most would find - and did find - repulsive. But to me, that is why he is so masterful with light. Light is more than a study in his work; it is the whole subject of almost every piece, and rendered in such a way that the viewer is instantly pulled into intimacy with it. There is something involuntary about it, and I think that feeling is what people reacted so powerfully to, both positively and negatively. I'm not an art student or expert so I hope that makes sense. Caravaggio was just a revelation for me. If you don't mind a suggestion, I'd love to hear you talk about Conversion on the Way to Damascus. Thanks for making these videos; I love them.

I really appreciate the great quality of work, be it editing, flow, voice over, the story telling. But most of all I appreciate the detail study of the artwork itself. Often the more famous artists work is almost fetishized (yes, while their lives are very much relavant to read the artwork, it is not the only thing interesting about the art) for the tragic life they've lived more than the artwork itself.

Another great video. The only down side is don't try to watch this at bedtime because the opera music might wake someone else up. Other than that, it's great and I'm enjoying these videos.
