**Caravaggio (1571-1610)
-Italy
Caravaggio turned pictorial space into theater by making darkness an active participant and light the instrument of revelation. His male figures are not posed as idealized statues but caught in an unguarded second breath, sweat, and emotional ambivalence visible in a hand or tilt of the head.
The painted darkness is thick and meaningful; it isolates and intensifies what the light will expose, so an eye, a cup, or a forearm becomes charged with drama.
Recreating Caravaggio’s effect demands an embrace of immediacy: skin that seems tangible, props that speak of everyday life, and a lighting plan that turns mere figures into charged presences.
