1/4 Who Killed Caravaggio ? - Secret Lives of the Artists

• Secret Lives of the Ar...
First broadcast: 2002.
Episode 3/3 When Caravaggio died in 1610 , he was 39 years old, the most famous painter of his age and an exile from Rome after killing a man in a street fight. But his death has always been a mystery, with no body, no grave site, and conflicting stories of what happened.
In 2001, art critic Andrew Graham-Dixon went in search of the true story of the extraordinary life and mysterious death of one of the greatest painters in western art, travelling from Rome to Naples to Malta and Sicily, meeting experts and scouring archives on the way. He uncovered the painter's criminal record, a trail of violent incident, sexual intrigue and conspiracy, and came face to face with some of the most profoundly spiritual paintings ever painted.
Graham-Dixon has been researching and working on the story of the artist ever since. Caravaggio's art has never been more popular, and now he thinks he may have found some of the answers.

Such an intriguing story #caravaggio is an #enigma and a #mystery in one.

[@claywarner7429]

One of the greatest painters that ever lived indeed. Think if your were him, what a life (good or bad) he had.

[@rosemcguinn5301]

And he utilized the latest in lens technology in order to make his work quickly. Camera obscura. I wrote an essay on the subject once for a college class.

This might be where the phrase "He had it coming" originated.

[@celtoloco788]

yeah, everyone loves him, yet I cant help but feel the families of his murder victims hated him more than Satan. He got what he deserved, his art was amazing but he was rather a pos person

Lead poisoning from his paints.

At 12 minutes 49the man with the records dating back 500 years is flipping through the pages like it was a national geographic magazine put out last week. He's not wearing any gloves or anyting. I would hope by now, they would at least wear gloves.

[@sarahmillard6401]

Gloves aren’t worn by archivists, I’m afraid that’s a myth. It risks more damage to the paper or parchment as the gloves catch and because you have less sensitivity, it’s easier to tear and damage the medium. In fact, the oils from skin are beneficial to parchment and vellum which is damaged by becoming too dry.
