Caravaggio (1571-1610)
Caravaggio is also known as Michelangelo Merisi and as the second Michelangelo.
Caravaggio painted mostly devotional art, he focused on figures and events from the New Testament and took seriously the mundane yet monumental quality of Christianity.
He used Roman street people as the model for the Apostles and Mary. He used larger than life proportions, highly theatrical lighting and crowded his significant figures into shallow spaces.
