- A short biography of the colorful renaissance artist Caravaggio
Please excuse the image of the French painter: Simon Vouet which I mistakenly used as a portrait of Caravaggio. I hope it doesn't ruin your day.
I have got to five minutes and just want too say this is simply the best lesson
in Caravaggio I have ever had I have been a art student since 1987
Thank you from u.k
I am just discovering the world art. I’m home schooling my daughter and it’s part of her classical education. I am fascinated by Carragatio’s paintings. His life itself was interesting none the least
Hi John, thanks for the feedback. There's a really good series on Netflix Called: "Medici" which is a really great way to experience the birth of the renaissance period in Florence, Italy. The Medici family was the most powerful, wealthy family in Europe for almost 300 years and commissioned many of the most famous paintings and sculptures that we treasure today. They were the patrons of many famous artists and I think you might enjoy watching the series with your daughter. It's not just a boring art history story but rather a very dramatic story of the most powerful family in Europe, how they got there, how they maintained their power and all the while there's art history woven into the story.
Don't homeschool your daughter
Thank you for a great Bio on Carravaggio I especially like the Paintings you chose. Also, you have a beautiful speaking voice. Best Wishes x Lou from Ireland.
Great video and excellent presentation !
Best wishes from Romania !
The opening picture is not Caravaggio but Simone Vouet
There’s a self portrait of the french painter Simon Vouet shown as a caravaggio face!what’s the point?
You are correct! thanks for pointing that out.
@@mikeityike you're welcome!I precise, I didn't want to be rude; but I love Simon Vouet and I recognize him immediatly :-)
a violent punk and at the same time a poetic artist, what a great combination
Your video on Caravaggio is an excellent one for the general public-well done!!! Bravo! Forgive me if I make a few corrections (I lecture on Caravaggio in Europe and in North America). Giuseppe Cesari's surname is pronounced CHAY-sar-ee. The portrait at 2:36 is a self-portrait by the French painter Simone Vouet (1590-1649). The "David & Goliath" at 4:27 is almost certainly not by Caravaggio (it's disputed)-it's too neatly painted for the periods after which Caravaggio started to paint religious paintings; it may be by Orazio Gentilleschi, Artemisia's father. As you point out, a painter's modelling his own head for Goliath's was a tradition, but the head in this painting is not Caravaggio's. Caravaggio's "Martyrdom of St Matthew" (the painting at 4:36) was painted in 1599, years before he fled from Rome. He is not the model for St Matthew (the model was the studio assistant who also modelled for several of C's "St Jeromes")-Caravaggio did paint himself into the painting, though: he is at the back of the crowd, at the left. The "Sacred Love & Profane Love" at 6:27 is by Giovanni Baglione (1566-1643), who wrote a very fair biography of Caravaggio, even though they hated each other.
Thanks for your insights!
Micheal John angel from Angel academy of art? 😱
Giuseppe Césarien is pronounced CHEH’’zari, with the emphasis on the first syllable
well done
Thanks!
Awsome
That portrait you end with has nothing to do with Caravaggio. He was also presumed to be gay as it influenced some of the workds, so the intro of female model/lover you mention is news to me...

A very shallow n superficial treatment of a life and work far more important and beyond the scope of a simple 13 minute video. There are many way better than this. A simple you tube search will serve you much better. For the real story, check out Andrew Graham Dixon "who killed Caravaggio " right here in you tube. A true professional's coverage
Wow! What an ugly comment. Can you do any better yourself? You could've just suggested people also check out the other videos without being rude.
This is for art instruction for a younger audience. Geez. Please feel free to make your own video.
