Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (September 29th 1571 – 18 July 1610) was an Italian Baroque painter. He was born in Caravaggio, Lombardy, Italy.
Caravaggio painted Roman gods and Christian saints as if emerging out of darkness. Almost all of his religious paintings emphasize sadness, suffering and death.
