Famous paintings of Caravaggio

Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571 - 1610), widely known simply as Caravaggio, is one of the foremost figures of Baroque painting. His artwork stands out for exceptionally realistic style and dramatic use of light and shade (tenebrism). Both admired and criticized for his revolutionary techniques and radical break with ‘artificial’ Mannerism, the Italian painter was also known for his highly controversial lifestyle. In 1606, he was sentenced for murder for possibly unintentionally killing a young man leading to his exile from Rome. He died on his way back to Rome in 1610 in unclear circumstances.
