________________
Caravaggio was a master Italian painter, father of the Baroque style, who led a tumultuous life that was cut short his by his fighting and brawling. As a child and art student, he trained in Milan under a teacher who had been taught by the great Italian painter Titian himself, and who exposed him to the great works of Leonardo de Vinci and the Lombard artists. He moved to Rome in 1592, after certain quarrels resulted in the wounding of a police officer. Rome at the time was in a period if great expansion, and the many churches and palaces being built were all in need of paintings to decorate the walls. Caravaggio also moved to Rome during the Counter-Reformation, in which the Roman Catholic Church tried to stem the rising tide of Protestantism, and was commissioning many works to elevate the social status of the Church.

[@splatterbrain3788]

One time someone told me my art reminded them of Caravaggio and I melted right there on the spot.

[@fayee8986]

@@splatterbrain3788 LOL I'm very well understand what you're saying. It would have been a great compliment. Should I say it was a great compliment

[@skiendhiu]

Great presentation and video, his work is stunning. A feast for the eyes .thank you for this .Excellent informative narration.

[@flashladderacrobat]

How he could paint expression, simply amazing.

[@olgauyarra6045]

One of the best painters to paint hands. Comparing Caravaggio’s hands with the master Da Vinci, Da Vinci’s hands for me had no expression

[@onitasanders7403]

Thank you. Beautifully presented.

[@BrigidaRuffo-x7j]

I enjoyed this video thoroughly. Thank you.

[@50l12]

I love how you are not shy of pausing and admiring the piece like 14:00

[@jammasterjay4298]

I love his work

[@matiasruiz5112]

Stunning documentary with breathtaking image detail

[@fayee8986]

Brilliant work, none before nor after can compare!

[@carlswenson5403]

Very well done. Thank you for posting.

[@jonasmarin9717]

La grandeza con inusitada frecuencia, en su desenfreno... no conoce de ética ni de arrepentimiento!

[@misterchristopher8857]

Thank you for the brilliant, enlightening and inspiring biography of Caravaggio. May everyone enjoy more of the expansion of experiences with great art. We need the arts to awaken the finer side of human imagination.

[@fayee8986]

The most (brilliantlytalented, ) underrated , misunderstood, (misrepresented) ,artist that was ever known❤❤❤ his Works have surpassed them all.....!!!!!!...... hey most probably was very disliked most probably not popular with most people he probably was bold ,Brave and eager to defend himself against insults. And no doubt is life. 😢..... . ... that's how I perceive his documented😢

[@MFLimited]

I don’t think he’s underrated. Caravaggio is incredibly famous. He was also a murderer. So, his reputation has stood up pretty well.

[@drmilimiliy9343]

Have heard people comparing Caravaggio and Rembrandt, but for me the two of them cannot be more dissimilar...

[@jammasterjay4298]

That comparison will send you down a rabbit hole!!!

[@noahlapuz3853]

Rembvaggio

[@StevenHolmes-s3e]

I can see the resemblance! The distinction between light and dark shadows but Cara is more dynamic and riveting!

[@williaminnes7574]

Just the period of Baroque assimilates them …

[@MFLimited]

I haven’t heard that comparison. I haven’t watched this video yet though.

[@missmaggie2620]

His use of red in The Incredulity of Saint Thomas is stunning.

[@bristleconepinus2378]

Peter Robb wrote an excellent book on the man....M, the man who became Caravaggio" good read.

[@puma6155]

Great work. God bless you. You know how to create harmony

[@TOMReefer]

I would agree it’s Matthew, the younger with his head down

[@MaverickSeventySeven]

A major reason that his backgrounds were 'dark' was to save time painting any extraneous detail.

[@loisrossi841]

Totally amazing, thank you.

[@moonriverdiver]

A scholarly but engaging account of the most intense painter of his era, one equipped with prodigious skills - he skipped making preliminary drawings. Perhaps That facility provided him a momentum denied his peers and his work more riveting. Francis Bacon seen by some as drawing from the same well but shed of biblical narratives.

[@scoutxyz2828]

I enjoyed your video, I like the narrative.

[@Claudia-i7c3z]

Such beauty. Caravaggio XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

[@geometria3]

Caravaggio is perhaps underrated. He is in my opinion better than Rembrandt.

[@belginruzgar6130]

[@cerberus6654]

The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist is powerful but deeply disturbing. When I stood there in front of it, in a naturally gloomy alcove of the cathedral, my eye was drawn over and over again to the ugly little knife the executioner holds behind his back. That knife is in the exact centre of this huge painting and is the focus of the whole sordid scene. It was about as uplifting as a depiction of a pig being slaughtered. The grubby, casual, crassly dispassionate act reminded me of photos taken of some Nazi atrocity. Germans standing around smoking and chatting, while people are murdered in the coldest possible blood. Just like the characters on the right pushing to get a good eyeful of the event. Then there's the serious servant girl, calmly holding the bowl. I even felt that the old servant lady was actually more upset that the girl had chosen one of the best bowls in the house than about the beheading. A reaction along the lines of "What will Madam do to us when she finds out?". And John, lying there so passive, slack, pathetic. I walked out into the sunlight wondering I was going to throw up right then and there.

[@triconcert]

A very thorough presentation, when it got to John the Baptist around 1:19 it started to feel like child porn. He was a very talented artist but I tend to agree with the clergy of his day there was too much profanity. His technique is legendary

[@raymarshall2995]

Thomas had to use his hand, he was blind. He was not a doubter at all. His hand was being guided into the wound, while Thomas looks past the wound. Thomas was on the shore line with Jesus (because he was blind), while the others were out in the boat fishing. It seems that there always has to be a good/bad guy in stories, and it wasn't right that the label of being a doubting Thomas was applied to him.

[@kirschrot77]

It is an interesting video, but the computer generated voice is very distracting, and was the text written by Chat GPT?

[@duchamp303]

good documentary but ruined by the many ads that as per usual every product presented will be ignored.

[@jackedson7854]

St. Jerome is the patron of librarians; not St. Catherine...

[@fayee8986]

Self portrait are double self-portrait?... somebody speculation! Why does people do that speculate and portrayed it as if it is were proven fact.....

[@picassoboy52]

another great video here on you tube is called "Who Killed Caravaggio?" by andrew graham dixon, 4 part series.....very much worth watching

[@RingJando]

Caravaggio pierced his opponent’s femoral artery with his dueling sword, causing him to bleed to death in a very short time. The nature of the injury, close to Tomassoni’s groin, may suggest that Caravaggio intended to wound his opponent sexually. Wounds were meaningful in the honour culture of the time, so, for example, a facial wound might be inflicted to avenge an insult to reputation, or loss of face, while a genital wounding or attempted castration might mark a dispute over a woman. Caravaggio and Tomassoni may still have been competing over Fillide Melandroni, or perhaps they had argued over Tomassoni’s wife-the presence of Tomassoni’s two brothers-in-law as seconds gives some credence to the latter hypothesis. Whatever the cause, the killing would have a profound effect on the rest of Caravaggio’s life.

[@lorihenderson673]

Carrivagio please watch the Derek barman film.

[@doc2146]

Now it’s the “queer” this and the “Greer” that. No more homosexual, no more “gay”.

[@JebidiahKrackedyetagain-xv9hc]

I realize that there might....JUST MIGHT.... be a not-so-subtle statement Caravaggio was making as I examine the thumbnail picture a little more carefully than I have ever done before of that particular painting....The "statement"-- much more pornographic than "spiritual" or even "religious". But then again-- my comment here COULD be an indication as to where MY OWN MIND has resided** for quite a while, and even though my mind has climbed OUT of it, it still stumbles into it waaaay more than a man of my age should be stumbling into such a place....I mean I aint exactly a 21 year old enlisted soldier or college FRAT BOY anymore.🙄😶 ** The proverbial "gutter"

[@fayee8986]

Murder? It looked and sounded like to me it was self-defense. They were both fighting with swords ..... I never ceases to amaze me that your Viewpoint is way off ...

This narrator could make curious george seem evil

[@fayee8986]

In the painting where Thomas supposingly stuck his finger in the Lord's Side it's not scripture . The scriptures never said that he went forward with his finger. The scripture only said he said my Lord and my God he only had to see and the Lord's ( Nail scarred hand) hand was not painted !....... ask so many other artists has missed the scripture in a lot of religious paintings... for instance the Lord hung on the cross( he was bloody) He didn't have a beard cuz the (beard was plucked out ) during the night ,He was mistreated all night, He must have been unrecognizable from him being beating all night..... best scripture.... scripture the Lord was not handsome for he wanted people to love him what he wants to know what it look like...... there are a lot of mistakes and depiction of events in the scripture , does( scriptures )did not say (Paul was riding a white horse ) when he fell the ground, only that (he fell to the ground. ) So they (must have been walking) , the scriptures did not say he (fell off) just (fell to the ground. ).... he was far from the only one to have ever made a scripture mistake and his depiction of religious paintings. His work was magnificent, brilliantly talented young man. His work is (uncomparable ) !!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.

[@fayee8986]

This proves to me that the artist only protected himself the other guy was armed as well and fighting with a sword as well he just happened to lose. An evidently throughout his life the artist was a very disliked individual. Maybe because he was an orphan and a little bit crude and rough around the edges because he had to make his own way in the world.... how in the world could he have painted himself in such a position. Ridiculous there's no way that he could oppose and painted at the same time since you didn't have any drawings or anything it was straight on canvas.

[@fayee8986]

Nobody knows what it looks like there's no indication from him about his looks it's (only speculation!!)

[@joebroart]

Your insane, stop spamming

[@remiwat6001]

I do not think Narcissus is painted by Caravaggio, totally different style, and weak.

[@doc2146]

Oddly disjointed. Repeats in places. Very informative.

[@moonriverdiver]

The only substantive repitition at the very end The quality of research demonstrated by citations

[@fayee8986]

Of course marry the mother of Jesus had age( she boarded other children) , according to the word of God.

[@JohnC-pt1iw]

Was blue boy dressed cops note books from that age checked in modern age or just a story made up because he was poor? ( Modern day 2024 still ask poor to get out of way . )

[@technoindustrial4646]

you do not recognise his best message and it's under your eyes

[@fayee8986]

The display of that boy's flesh as you say this place (innocence).... not queer ...

[@magicunclefergaloreilly6699]

Just say no to tha annoying British AI accent, common to all these videos. Superiority expressed through education.

[@JohnC-pt1iw]

Wouldn’t be getting something from me even if I could, cheap skate planet earth, not worthy in universe.

[@Phoebe-cy8xc]

Really excellent content- learnt so much about this magnificent genius artist 🫶 just saw the Caravaggio exhibition in the National Gallery in London ( The Martydom of Saint Ursula/ late work) a darkened room with Caravaggio’s work was truly moving.

[@fayee8986]

It's not a( fact )that he was gay! It's just speculation made by a gay .No Doubt!.... LOL

[@fayee8986]

Of course he painted the male figure it was a male figure in the Bible he was representing Saint Paul was a male, Jesus Christ was a male ,Matthew was a male ,Peter was a male ....( surely he wouldn't have painted them female. LOL.) absolutely ridiculous, better said absolutely crazy.
