Velikani likovne umjetnosti #19: Caravaggio

Gilles Lambert

Each book in Taschen's Basic Art series contains a detailed chronological summary of the artist's life and work, covering the artist's cultural and historical significance, approximately 100 color illustrations with explanations, and a brief biography.

Gilles Lambert's monograph Caravaggio provides a detailed account of the life and work of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571–1610), a painter who revolutionized Baroque painting. Caravaggio is known for his dramatic use of light and shadow (chiaroscuro), realism, and the emotional expressiveness of his figures. Lambert analyzes key works such as The Calling of Saint Matthew, Judith Killing Holofernes, and The Breaking of Christ, highlighting their rawness, intensity, and innovation. The author also traces Caravaggio's turbulent life—from his success in Rome to his escape from murder, which is reflected in his darker later works. Lambert portrays Caravaggio as a rebel and a genius whose influence was far-reaching, shaping Baroque art and inspiring generations of painters.
