Tours: Seeking Caravaggio




SEEKING CARAVAGGIO

A walk around Rome to discover Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, the most revolutionary painter of the XVIIth Century!
Enigmatic, rebellious, fascinating and dangerous. A genius that subverted the standards of the art of painting. What begins with Caravaggio is, quite simply, modern painting.



Our tour:

S. Luigi dei Francesi
Caravaggio and his first public commission: Stories of San Matteo (Contarelli chapel)
Caravaggio vs Domenichino (Stories of Santa Cecilia - Cerasi chapel), Caravaggio's manner and the answer of Classicism

Caravaggio and the Madonna dei Pellegrini
Caravaggio vs Lanfranco (the SS. Agostino and Guglielmo chapel)

The Cesi chapel: Caravaggio vs Annibale Carracci

(The video has been filmed and produced with the help of Luca Liberatoscioli, Emiliano Sirleto, Matteo Locasciulli, Chicca Snider, Henrica van Velzen and the ARTENTERPRISES s.r.l.)
