title="Mononymous">mononymously</a> as Caravaggio, was an Italian painter active in <a href="/wiki/Rome" title="Rome">Rome</a> for most of his artistic life. During the final four years of his life, he moved between <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Naples" title="Kingdom of Naples">Naples</a>, <a href="/wiki/Hospitaller_Malta" title="Hospitaller Malta">Malta</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Sicily" title="Kingdom of Sicily">Sicily</a> until his death. His paintings have been characterized by art critics as combining a realistic observation of the human state, both physical and emotional, with a dramatic use of lighting, which had a formative influence on <a href="/wiki/Baroque_painting" title="Baroque painting">Baroque painting</a>.<a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> Caravaggio employed close physical observation with a dramatic use of <a href="/wiki/Chiaroscuro" title="Chiaroscuro">chiaroscuro</a> that came to be known as <a href="/wiki/Tenebrism" title="Tenebrism">tenebrism</a>. He made the technique a dominant stylistic element, transfixing subjects in bright shafts of light and darkening shadows. Caravaggio vividly expressed crucial moments and scenes, often featuring violent struggles, torture, and death. He worked rapidly with live models, preferring to forgo drawings and work directly onto the canvas. His inspiring effect on the new <a href="/wiki/Baroque" title="Baroque">Baroque</a> style that emerged from <a href="/wiki/Mannerism" title="Mannerism">Mannerism</a> was profound. His influence can be seen directly or indirectly in the work of <a href="/wiki/Peter_Paul_Rubens" title="Peter Paul Rubens">Peter Paul Rubens</a>, <a href="/wiki/Jusepe_de_Ribera" title="Jusepe de Ribera">Jusepe de Ribera</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gian_Lorenzo_Bernini" title="Gian Lorenzo Bernini">Gian Lorenzo Bernini</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Rembrandt" title="Rembrandt">Rembrandt</a>. Artists heavily under his influence were called the "<a href="/wiki/Caravaggisti" title="Caravaggisti">Caravaggisti</a>" (or "Caravagesques"), as well as tenebrists or tenebrosi ("shadowists"). Caravaggio trained as a painter in <a href="/wiki/Milan" title="Milan">Milan</a> before moving to Rome when he was in his twenties. He developed a considerable name as an artist and as a violent, touchy and provocative man. He killed Ranuccio Tommasoni in a brawl, which led to a death sentence for murder and forced him to flee to Naples. There he again established himself as one of the most prominent Italian painters of his generation. He travelled to Malta and on to Sicily in 1607 and pursued a papal pardon for his sentence. In 1609, he returned to Naples, where he was involved in a violent clash; his face was disfigured, and rumours of his death circulated. Questions about his mental state arose from his erratic and bizarre behavior. He died in 1610 under uncertain circumstances while on his way from Naples to Rome. Reports stated that he died of a fever, but suggestions have been made that he was murdered or that he died of lead poisoning. Caravaggio's innovations inspired <a href="/wiki/Baroque" title="Baroque">Baroque</a> painting, but the latter incorporated the drama of his chiaroscuro without the psychological realism.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Accuracy_dispute#Disputed_statement" title="Wikipedia:Accuracy dispute">dubious</a> – <a href="/wiki/Talk:Caravaggio#Dubious" title="Talk:Caravaggio">discuss</a>] The style evolved and fashions changed, and Caravaggio fell out of favour. In the 20th century, interest in his work revived, and his importance to the development of Western art was reevaluated.

Caravaggio also dispensed with the lengthy preparations for a painting that were traditional in central Italy at the time.

There are two autograph versions of the painting, the ecclesiastical "Trieste" version for <a href="/wiki/Girolamo_Mattei" title="Girolamo Mattei">Girolamo Mattei</a> now in a private collection and the secular "<a href="/wiki/Potsdam" title="Potsdam">Potsdam</a>" version for <a href="/wiki/Vincenzo_Giustiniani" title="Vincenzo Giustiniani">Vincenzo Giustiniani</a> (Pietro Bellori), which later entered the Prussian Royal Collection, survived the <a href="/wiki/Second_World_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Second World War">Second World War</a> unscathed, and can be viewed in the <a href="/wiki/Sanssouci" title="Sanssouci">Palais in Sanssouci</a>, Potsdam. The painting depicts the episode that led to the term "<a href="/wiki/Doubting_Thomas" title="Doubting Thomas">Doubting Thomas</a>"—in art history formally known as "The Incredulity of Saint Thomas"—which has been frequently depicted and used to make various theological statements in Christian art since at least the 5th century. According to the <a href="/wiki/Gospel_of_John" title="Gospel of John">Gospel of John</a>, <a href="/wiki/Thomas_the_Apostle" title="Thomas the Apostle">Thomas the Apostle</a> missed one of Jesus' appearances to the apostles after his resurrection and said, "Unless I see the marks of the nails in his hands, and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it." A week later, Jesus appeared and told Thomas to touch him and stop doubting. Then Jesus said, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." Both versions of the painting show in a demonstrative gesture how the doubting apostle puts his finger into Christ's side wound, the latter guiding his hand. The unbeliever is depicted like a peasant, dressed in a robe torn at the shoulder and with dirt under his fingernails. The composition of the picture is designed in such a way that the viewer is directly involved in the event and feels the intensity of the event.<a href="#cite_note-29">[29]</a> It should also be noted that in the ecclesiastical version of the unbelieving Thomas, Christ's thigh is shown to be covered, whereas in the secular version of the painting, Christ's thigh is visible.<a href="#cite_note-30">[30]</a><a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a><figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_(1606).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_%281606%29.jpg/240px-Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_%281606%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="240" height="362" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_%281606%29.jpg/360px-Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_%281606%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_%281606%29.jpg/480px-Death_of_the_Virgin-Caravaggio_%281606%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="9458" data-file-height="14274" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Death_of_the_Virgin_(Caravaggio)" title="Death of the Virgin (Caravaggio)">Death of the Virgin</a>, 1601–1606, <a href="/wiki/Louvre" title="Louvre">Louvre</a>, Paris</figcaption></figure> Other works included <a href="/wiki/The_Entombment_of_Christ_(Caravaggio)" title="The Entombment of Christ (Caravaggio)">Entombment</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Madonna_di_Loreto_(Caravaggio)" title="Madonna di Loreto (Caravaggio)">Madonna di Loreto</a> ("Madonna of the Pilgrims"), the <a href="/wiki/Madonna_and_Child_with_St._Anne_(Dei_Palafrenieri)" class="mw-redirect" title="Madonna and Child with St. Anne (Dei Palafrenieri)">Grooms' Madonna</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Death_of_the_Virgin_(Caravaggio)" title="Death of the Virgin (Caravaggio)">Death of the Virgin</a>.

A cardinal's secretary wrote: "In this painting, there are but vulgarity, sacrilege, impiousness and disgust...One would say it is a work made by a painter that can paint well, but of a dark spirit, and who has been for a lot of time far from God, from His adoration, and from any good thought..." <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/df/Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg/220px-Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="308" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/df/Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg/330px-Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/df/Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg/440px-Amor_Vincet_Omnia.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1151" data-file-height="1614" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Amor_Vincit_Omnia_(Caravaggio)" title="Amor Vincit Omnia (Caravaggio)">Amor Vincit Omnia</a>, 1601–1602, <a href="/wiki/Gem%C3%A4ldegalerie" class="mw-redirect" title="Gemäldegalerie">Gemäldegalerie</a>, Berlin.

Death of the Virgin was no sooner taken out of the church than it was purchased by the Duke of Mantua, on the advice of <a href="/wiki/Rubens" class="mw-redirect" title="Rubens">Rubens</a>, and later acquired by <a href="/wiki/Charles_I_of_England" title="Charles I of England">Charles I of England</a> before entering the French royal collection in 1671. One secular piece from these years is <a href="/wiki/Amor_Vincit_Omnia_(Caravaggio)" title="Amor Vincit Omnia (Caravaggio)">Amor Vincit Omnia</a>, in English also called Amor Victorious, painted in 1602 for <a href="/wiki/Vincenzo_Giustiniani" title="Vincenzo Giustiniani">Vincenzo Giustiniani</a>, a member of del Monte's circle. The model was named in a memoir of the early 17th century as "Cecco", the diminutive for Francesco. He is possibly Francesco Boneri, identified with an artist active in the period 1610–1625 and known as <a href="/wiki/Cecco_del_Caravaggio" title="Cecco del Caravaggio">Cecco del Caravaggio</a> ('Caravaggio's Cecco'),<a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a> carrying a bow and arrows and trampling symbols of the warlike and peaceful arts and sciences underfoot.

The point, however, is the intense yet ambiguous reality of the work: it is simultaneously Cupid and Cecco, as Caravaggio's Virgins were simultaneously the Mother of Christ and the Roman courtesans who modeled for them. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Legal_problems_and_flight_from_Rome_(1606)">Legal problems and flight from Rome (1606)</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Caravaggio&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Legal problems and flight from Rome (1606)">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_(1605-6).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4d/Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_%281605-6%29.jpg/220px-Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_%281605-6%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="157" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4d/Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_%281605-6%29.jpg/330px-Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_%281605-6%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4d/Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_%281605-6%29.jpg/440px-Saint_Jerome_Writing-Caravaggio_%281605-6%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="8708" data-file-height="6212" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Saint_Jerome_Writing" title="Saint Jerome Writing">Saint Jerome Writing</a>, <abbr title="circa">c.</abbr> 1605–1606, <a href="/wiki/Galleria_Borghese" title="Galleria Borghese">Galleria Borghese</a>, Rome</figcaption></figure> Caravaggio led a tumultuous life. He was notorious for brawling, even in a time and place when such behavior was commonplace, and the transcripts of his police records and trial proceedings fill many pages.<a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a> Bellori claims that around 1590–1592, Caravaggio, already well known for brawling with gangs of young men, committed a murder which forced him to flee from Milan, first to Venice and then to Rome.<a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a> On 28 November 1600, while living at the <a href="/wiki/Palazzo_Madama,_Rome" title="Palazzo Madama, Rome">Palazzo Madama</a> with his patron Cardinal Del Monte, Caravaggio beat nobleman Girolamo Stampa da Montepulciano, a guest of the cardinal, with a club, resulting in an official complaint to the police. Episodes of brawling, violence, and tumult grew more and more frequent.<a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a> Caravaggio was often arrested and jailed at <a href="/wiki/Tor_di_Nona" title="Tor di Nona">Tor di Nona</a>.<a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a> After his release from jail in 1601, Caravaggio returned to paint first <a href="/wiki/The_Taking_of_Christ" class="mw-redirect" title="The Taking of Christ">The Taking of Christ</a> and then <a href="/wiki/Amor_Vincit_Omnia_(Caravaggio)" title="Amor Vincit Omnia (Caravaggio)">Amor Vincit Omnia</a>. In 1603, he was arrested again, this time for the <a href="/wiki/Defamation" title="Defamation">defamation</a> of another painter, <a href="/wiki/Giovanni_Baglione" title="Giovanni Baglione">Giovanni Baglione</a>, who sued Caravaggio and his followers <a href="/wiki/Orazio_Gentileschi" title="Orazio Gentileschi">Orazio Gentileschi</a> and <a href="/wiki/Onorio_Longhi" title="Onorio Longhi">Onorio Longhi</a> for writing offensive poems about him. The French ambassador intervened, and Caravaggio was transferred to house arrest after a month in jail in Tor di Nona. Between May and October 1604, Caravaggio was arrested several times for possession of illegal weapons and for insulting the city guards. He was also sued by a tavern waiter for having thrown a plate of <a href="/wiki/Artichoke" title="Artichoke">artichokes</a> in his face.<a href="#cite_note-40">[40]</a> An early published notice on Caravaggio, dating from 1604 and describing his lifestyle three years previously, recounts that "after a fortnight's work he will swagger about for a month or two with a sword at his side and a servant following him, from one ball-court to the next, ever ready to engage in a fight or an argument, so that it is most awkward to get along with him."<a href="#cite_note-41">[41]</a> In 1605, Caravaggio was forced to flee to Genoa for three weeks after seriously injuring Mariano Pasqualone di Accumoli, a notary, in a dispute over Lena, Caravaggio's model and lover. The notary reported having been attacked on 29 July with a sword, causing a severe head injury.<a href="#cite_note-42">[42]</a><a href="#cite_note-43">[43]</a> Caravaggio's patrons intervened and managed to cover up the incident. Upon his return to Rome, Caravaggio was sued by his landlady Prudenzia Bruni for not having paid his rent. Out of spite, Caravaggio threw rocks through her window at night and was sued again. In November, Caravaggio was hospitalized for an injury which he claimed he had caused himself by falling on his own sword. On 29 May 1606, Caravaggio killed a young man, possibly unintentionally, resulting in his fleeing Rome with a death sentence hanging over him. Ranuccio Tomassoni was a gangster from a wealthy family. The two had argued many times, often ending in blows. The circumstances are unclear, whether a brawl or a <a href="/wiki/Duel" title="Duel">duel</a> with swords at <a href="/wiki/Campo_Marzio" title="Campo Marzio">Campo Marzio</a>, but the killing may have been unintentional. Many rumours circulated at the time as to the cause of the fight. Several contemporary <a href="/wiki/Avvisi" class="mw-redirect" title="Avvisi">avvisi</a> referred to a quarrel over a gambling debt and a <a href="/wiki/Palla_(game)" title="Palla (game)">pallacorda</a> game, a sort of tennis, and this explanation has become established in the popular imagination.<a href="#cite_note-Life_of_Caravaggio-44">[44]</a> Other rumours, however, claimed that the duel stemmed from jealousy over <a href="/wiki/Fillide_Melandroni" title="Fillide Melandroni">Fillide Melandroni</a>, a well-known Roman prostitute who had modeled for him in several important paintings; Tomassoni was her pimp. According to such rumours, Caravaggio castrated Tomassoni with his sword before deliberately killing him, with other versions claiming that Tomassoni's death had been caused accidentally during the castration. The duel may have had a political dimension, as Tomassoni's family was notoriously pro-Spanish, whereas Caravaggio was a client of the French ambassador. Caravaggio's patrons had hitherto been able to shield him from any serious consequences of his frequent duels and brawling, but Tomassoni's wealthy family was outraged by his death and demanded justice. Caravaggio's patrons were unable to protect him. Caravaggio was sentenced to <a href="/wiki/Beheading" class="mw-redirect" title="Beheading">beheading</a> for murder, and an open bounty was decreed, enabling anyone who recognized him to carry out the sentence legally. Caravaggio's paintings began, obsessively, to depict severed heads, often his own, at this time.

In Syracuse and Messina Caravaggio continued to win prestigious and well-paid commissions. Among other works from this period are <a href="/wiki/Burial_of_St._Lucy_(Caravaggio)" class="mw-redirect" title="Burial of St. Lucy (Caravaggio)">Burial of St. Lucy</a>, <a href="/wiki/The_Raising_of_Lazarus_-_Messina_(Caravaggio)" class="mw-redirect" title="The Raising of Lazarus - Messina (Caravaggio)">The Raising of Lazarus</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Adoration_of_the_Shepherds_(Caravaggio)" title="Adoration of the Shepherds (Caravaggio)">Adoration of the Shepherds</a>. His style continued to evolve, showing now friezes of figures isolated against vast empty backgrounds. "His great Sicilian altarpieces isolate their shadowy, pitifully poor figures in vast areas of darkness; they suggest the desperate fears and frailty of man, and at the same time convey, with a new yet desolate tenderness, the beauty of humility and of the meek, who shall inherit the earth."<a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> Contemporary reports depict a man whose behaviour was becoming increasingly bizarre, which included sleeping fully armed and in his clothes, ripping up a painting at a slight word of criticism, and mocking local painters. Caravaggio displayed bizarre behaviour from very early in his career. Mancini describes him as "extremely crazy", a letter from Del Monte notes his strangeness, and Minniti's 1724 biographer says that Mario left Caravaggio because of his behaviour. The strangeness seems to have increased after Malta. Susinno's early-18th-century Le vite de' pittori Messinesi ("Lives of the Painters of Messina") provides several colourful anecdotes of Caravaggio's erratic behaviour in Sicily, and these are reproduced in modern full-length biographies such as Langdon and Robb. Bellori writes of Caravaggio's "fear" driving him from city to city across the island and finally, "feeling that it was no longer safe to remain", back to Naples. Baglione says Caravaggio was being "chased by his enemy", but like Bellori does not say who this enemy was. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Return_to_Naples">Return to Naples</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Caravaggio&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Return to Naples">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg/220px-CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="182" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg/330px-CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg/440px-CaravaggioSalomeMadrid.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1200" data-file-height="995" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Salome_with_the_Head_of_John_the_Baptist_(Caravaggio,_Madrid)" title="Salome with the Head of John the Baptist (Caravaggio, Madrid)">Salome with the Head of John the Baptist</a>, <a href="/wiki/Royal_Palace_of_Madrid" title="Royal Palace of Madrid">Royal Palace of Madrid</a></figcaption></figure> After only nine months in Sicily, Caravaggio returned to Naples in the late summer of 1609.

("and their women changed their natural habit to that which is against nature").<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBouchard1791270-77">[77]</a> The phrase, according to Mirabeau, entered Caravaggio's thoughts, and he claimed that such an "abomination" could be witnessed through a particular painting housed at the Museum of the <a href="/wiki/Grand_Duke_of_Tuscany" class="mw-redirect" title="Grand Duke of Tuscany">Grand Duke of Tuscany</a>—featuring a <a href="/wiki/Rosary" title="Rosary">rosary</a> of a <a href="/wiki/Blasphemous" class="mw-redirect" title="Blasphemous">blasphemous</a> nature, in which a circle of thirty men (turpiter ligati) are intertwined in embrace and presented in unbridled composition.

Baglione accused Caravaggio and his friends of writing and distributing scurrilous doggerel attacking him; the pamphlets, according to Baglione's friend and witness Mao Salini, had been distributed by a certain Giovanni Battista, a bardassa, or boy prostitute, shared by Caravaggio and his friend Onorio Longhi. Caravaggio denied knowing any young boy of that name, and the allegation was not followed up.<a href="#cite_note-81">[81]</a> Baglione's painting of "Divine Love" has also been seen as a visual accusation of <a href="/wiki/Sodomy" title="Sodomy">sodomy</a> against Caravaggio.<a href="#cite_note-ReferenceA-75">[75]</a> Such accusations were damaging and dangerous as sodomy was a capital crime at the time. Even though the authorities were unlikely to investigate such a well-connected person as Caravaggio, "Once an artist had been smeared as a pederast, his work was smeared too."<a href="#cite_note-Andrew_Graham-Dixon_2011,_p.4-71">[71]</a> Francesco Susino in his later biography additionally relates the story of how the artist was chased by a schoolmaster in Sicily for spending too long gazing at the boys in his care. Susino presents it as a misunderstanding, but some authors have speculated that Caravaggio may indeed have been seeking sex with the boys, using the incident to explain some of his paintings which they believe to be homoerotic.<a href="#cite_note-82">[82]</a> The art historian <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Graham-Dixon" title="Andrew Graham-Dixon">Andrew Graham-Dixon</a> has summarised the debate: <blockquote>A lot has been made of Caravaggio's presumed homosexuality, which has in more than one previous account of his life been presented as the single key that explains everything, both the power of his art and the misfortunes of his life. There is no absolute proof of it, only strong circumstantial evidence and much rumour. The balance of probability suggests that Caravaggio did indeed have sexual relations with men. But he certainly had female lovers. Throughout the years that he spent in Rome, he kept close company with a number of prostitutes. The truth is that Caravaggio was as uneasy in his relationships as he was in most other aspects of life. He likely slept with men. He did sleep with women. He settled with no one... [but] the idea that he was an early martyr to the drives of an unconventional sexuality is an anachronistic fiction.<a href="#cite_note-Andrew_Graham-Dixon_2011,_p.4-71">[71]</a></blockquote> Washington Post art critic Philip Kennicott has taken issue with what he regarded as Graham-Dixon's minimizing of Caravaggio's homosexuality: <blockquote>There was a fussiness to the tone whenever a scholar or curator was forced to grapple with transgressive sexuality, and you can still find it even in relatively recent histories, including Andrew Graham-Dixon's 2010 biography of Caravaggio, which acknowledges only that "he likely slept with men".<a href="#cite_note-83">[83]</a> The author notes the artist's fluid sexual desires but gives some of Caravaggio's most explicitly homoerotic paintings tortured readings to keep them safely in the category of mere "ambiguity".</blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="As_an_artist">As an artist</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Caravaggio&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: As an artist">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_birth_of_Baroque">The birth of Baroque</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Caravaggio&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: The birth of Baroque">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e0/Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg/260px-Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg" decoding="async" width="260" height="217" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e0/Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg/390px-Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e0/Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg/520px-Caravaggio_-_Cena_in_Emmaus.jpg 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="750" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Supper_at_Emmaus_(London)_(Caravaggio)" class="mw-redirect" title="Supper at Emmaus (London) (Caravaggio)">Supper at Emmaus</a>, 1601, oil on canvas, 139 cm × 195 cm (55 in × 77 in), <a href="/wiki/National_Gallery" title="National Gallery">National Gallery</a>, London.

With this came the acute observation of physical and psychological reality that formed the ground both for his immense popularity and for his frequent problems with his religious commissions. He worked at great speed, from live models, scoring basic guides directly onto the canvas with the end of the brush handle; very few of Caravaggio's drawings appear to have survived, and it is likely that he preferred to work directly on the canvas, an unusual approach at the time.

This phrase is obscure, but it has been interpreted as meaning either that the boy is a youthful self-portrait or, more commonly, that this is the Cecco who modeled for the Amor Vincit. The sword-blade carries an abbreviated inscription that has been interpreted as meaning Humility Conquers Pride. Attributed to a date in Caravaggio's late Roman period by Bellori, the recent tendency is to see it as a product of Caravaggio's second Neapolitan period.
