Caravaggio - Bold and Wonderful .

Abstract: (5 pp) Few artists in history have exercised as extraordinary an influence as this tempestuous and short-lived painter. Caravaggio was destined to turn a large part of European art away from the ideal viewpoint of the Renaissance, to the concept that simple reality was of primary importance. He was one of the first to paint people as ordinary looking, often using models from the street or the brothels. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
