Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio ) was an Italian Renaissance painter , whose large religious works portrayed saints and other biblical figures as ordinary people. Supper at Emmaus Painted 1601 Larger version Though these paintings were controversial in the church , the wealthy purchased them for their drama, their spectacular technical accomplishment, their startling originality, and even their homoeroticism. It would be hard to overestimate the impact that Caravaggio's innovations had upon painters of his generation and the generations that followed. A short list of artists who owe much to his stylistic breakthroughs would have to include La Tour, Ribera, Rubens Vermeer Rembrandt , and even Velazquez , who likely saw his work during his various sojourns in Italy. Contemporary painters like the Norwegian Odd Nerdrum and the Romanian Tibor Csernus make no secret of their attempts to emulate and update his work. Perhaps no single artist in the entire Western canon, outside of Giotto and Massacio, had so much influence beyond his time. NOTES ON THE PICTURE From http://www.kfki.hu/~arthp/html

Narcissus , c1598-9, oil on canvas, Rome Caravaggio Michelangelo da Merisi (1571-1610) HIS SECULAR PAINTINGS By Gwen M McKinney presented 18 March 2003 Michelangelo da Merisi, commonly known as Caravaggio, was born to Fermo Merisi and his wife Lucia Aratori in September of 1571 in the town of Caravaggio. Fermo was the majordomo and architect of the Marchese di Caravaggio, Francesco Sforza. The town of Caravaggio was located in the northern region of Italy (Lombardy) near Milan and Venice. Caravaggio grew up during the early decades of the Counter-Reformation and this was to play an important role in his later paintings. Michelangelo's father, Fermo died in 1577 at the hand of the plague. Shortly thereafter, Caravaggio became apprenticed to the painter Simone Peterzano (1540-1596) of Milan, a student of Titian. Caravaggio apprenticed with Peterzano and during this time he learned the necessities to become a painter, including how to prepare colors, draw and paint, and learn anatomy and perspective. It is important to note that in the Lombardy region a naturalistic tendency in drawing and painting was prevalent. Helen Langdon suggests that a "study from nature" may have been a part of Caravaggio's training under Peterzano. After his time with Peterzano ended, around 1588, Caravaggio moved between Milan and Caravaggio. By 1592, he traveled away from his homeland, stopping in Venice, then Bologna and finally Rome. Caravaggio's early years in Rome were plagued by frustration and humiliation.

Spike (Hardcover - October 2001) Quoting Caravaggio : Contemporary Art, Preposterous History by Mieke Bal Mieke Bal's primary object of investigation in Quoting Caravaggio is not the great seventeenth-century painter, but rather the issue of temporality in art. In order to retheorize linear notions of influence in cultural production, Bal analyzes the productive relationship between Caravaggio and a number of late-twentieth-century artists who "quote" the baroque master in their own works. These artists include Andres Serrano, Carrie Mae Weems, Ken Aptekar, David Reed, and Ana Mendieta, among others. Amazon.com

Stork Christopher W. Tyler David Hockney In the press Bibliography van Eyck Lotto Caravaggio Optics Focal lengths Oil paint No documentation ... Summary Caravaggio's "Supper at Emmaus" (1601-2): Problems in refocusing, problems in the studio, problems with illumination Caravaggio figures prominently in Hockney's theory, yet this painting exposes numerous awkward implications of the theory related to refocusing, moving the canvas, and illumination. Supper at Emmaus Caravaggio, ca. 1601-2 Consider the first problem: refocusing. Hockney writes (p. 120): "Peter's right hand seems larger than his left, which is also nearer. These may be deliberate artistic decisions, or may be a consequence of movements of lens [concave mirror] and canvas when refocusing because of depth-of-field problems." For this large painting (141 x 196 cm), it turns out that the image of Peter's left hand is just about life size (17 cm from tip of baby finger to tip of index finger), and the image of Peter's right hand is larger than you would expect from the perspective (as Mr. Hockney points out), yet still slightly smaller than his left (by about 10% linear measure). The magnification M is the ratio of the sizes of the image to the object. In this case, then, the magnification for the left hand is M = 1.0 and for his right hand M = 0.9.
