Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (29 September 1571 – 18 July 1610), was an Italian painter active in Rome for most of his artistic life. His paintings combine a realistic observation of the human state, both physical and emotional, with a dramatic use of lighting, which had a formative influence on Baroque painting.
