This is a fascinating documentary about Caravaggio, which
when I first watched it introduced me to so many ideas about art and particularly
classical styles of painting, with covering the live of the artist and what
drove him to create the work he was producing, but it also covers some of the
contextual and symbolical methods used in the paintings. It’s well worth a
watch if you have any interest in painters like this because it explains all these
things really well, and without doing it in a way which is so academic that it
gets confusing.
