Caravaggio. the Complete Works. 45th Ed.

Very informative survey of Caravaggio’s work, his influences, techniques, and the meanings encoded in his paintings. Probably not a book for those new to Caravaggio, given its wealth of detail and its high academic style. Fine reproductions despite the smaller format of this book. Caravaggio’s eventful life is covered, although the author is critical of the many unverified and sensational stories about him. He dismisses the widespread assumption of the painter’s bisexuality, despite contemporary rumors, his long residence with the ephebophile Cardinal del Monte, and the many sensual youths depicted in his work. The translation is generally clear, with occasional non-English locutions.

Es muy lindo, solo que no revise el tamaño. Es mas pequeño de lo necesario para poder apreciar las obras.

A really interesting account of his paintings and life. Wonderful illustrations Arrived promptly on Amazon prime thank you!
