Caravaggio
Italian
1571–1610
Revolutionary Baroque painter whose stark realism and dramatic lighting transformed religious and secular painting. His use of theatrical chiaroscuro and unidealized figures brought a new immediacy to biblical stories. Caravaggio's style spread across Europe and shaped the development of Baroque art in Italy, Spain, and the Low Countries.
