Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An unprecedented accumulation of international loans buttresses this showstopping retrospective of the Baroque master's life and legacyCaravaggio is an Old Master for a modern age. His recent resurgence in popularity owes in no small part to his dramatic compositions, which expose the conflict between salvation and damnation in the souls of each of his subjects, whether biblical saints or streetwise criminals.This exhibition in Rome and its accompanying catalog distinguishes itself through its exceptional loans that reunite and resituate the landmark paintings of Caravaggio's career. Saint Catherine from the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza and Martha and Mary Magdalene from the Detroit Institute of Arts join the Palazzo Barberini Judith, showcasing Caravaggio's use of the same model on three separate occasions; The Cardsharps from the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth returns to the place where it was long on display; Saint John the Baptist from the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City and Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy from the Wadsworth Athaneum in Hartford appear together for the first time. These magnificent and unprecedented selections offer insight not only into Caravaggio's evolution as an artist but also his immediate networks and surroundings.Michelangelo Merisi, known as Caravaggio (1571-1610), was born in Milan. His early commissions included works for Cardinal Francesco Maria del Monte and the Contarelli Chapel in San Luigi dei Francesi. From 1600 to 1606 he was considered the most famous painter in Rome. After killing a wealthy young man he fled the city, still painting but on the run as a criminal. He died under mysterious circumstances in 1610.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ovid's Metamorphoses and its lasting impact on visual art The Roman poet Ovid's Metamorphoses is among the most important works of Classical Antiquity, described in the seventeenth century as a 'Bible for artists'. The compelling epic intertwines tales of chaos and the cosmos, encounters between gods, humans and nature, and the countless transformations to which they gave rise. For centuries, artists have drawn inspiration from these highly imaginative accounts of passion, jealousy, cunning and deceit on the part of deities, heroes and ordinary mortals. The stories have been interpreted in marble and paint, and more recently in moving pictures. This book shows the immense influence that Ovid has exerted on the visual arts - from Antiquity to the present day. It presents sculptures by Cellini, Bernini, Rodin and Bourgeois alongside paintings by Titian, Correggio, Caravaggio, Arcimboldo and Rubens. Ovid's myths address universal human feelings, allowing them to speak as powerfully as ever to our imagination. This richly illustrated book, featuring essays by Francesca Cappelletti, Claudia Cieri Via, Bart Ramakers, Frits Scholten and Lucia Simonato, is the living proof. This publication accompanies the exhibitions at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam (6 February-25 May 2026) and the Galleria Borghese, Rome (22 June-20 September 2026). Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
