Caravaggio 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.

卡拉瓦乔是适应现代时代的古典大师。他近来人气回升，在很大程度上要归功于其富有戏剧性的构图，这些作品揭示了画中每个主体——无论是圣经中的圣徒还是街头罪犯——灵魂中救赎与诅咒之间的冲突。

这场在罗马举办的展览及其配套图录凭借其非凡的借展藏品脱颖而出，这些藏品将卡拉瓦乔职业生涯中的标志性画作重新汇聚并置于新的语境中。来自蒂森-博尔奈米萨博物馆的《圣凯瑟琳》、底特律艺术学院的《玛莎与玛丽 Magdalene》与巴贝里尼宫的《朱迪思》一同展出，展现了卡拉瓦乔三次使用同一位模特的创作；来自沃思堡金贝尔艺术博物馆的《纸牌作弊者》回到了它长期展出过的地方；来自堪萨斯城纳尔逊-阿特金斯博物馆的《施洗者圣约翰》与来自哈特福德沃兹沃思 Atheneum 的《狂喜中的圣方济各》首次联袂亮相。这些宏伟且前所未有的精选作品不仅让人深入了解卡拉瓦乔作为艺术家的成长历程，也让人得以一窥他所处的直接社交圈和环境。

米开朗基罗·梅里西，人称卡拉瓦乔（1571–1610），出生于米兰。他早期的委托作品包括为弗朗切斯科·玛丽亚·德尔·蒙特红衣主教以及圣路易吉·德伊·弗朗西西教堂的孔塔雷利礼拜堂创作的作品。1600 年至 1606 年间，他被认为是罗马最著名的画家。在杀死一名富有的年轻人后，他逃离了这座城市，虽仍在作画，却过着亡命天涯的罪犯生活。1610 年，他在神秘的情况下离世。
